Orange County Shifts from Sprawl to Density, Influencing Real Estate Investment
What happened
HAUSER commented on the demographic shifts occurring in Orange County, noting the role of Irvine Company's master planning efforts. The county is transforming from a region focused on horizontal sprawl to one increasingly centered on placemaking and density.
Why it matters
