There are hardly ever any crimes, and when there are, if there is a threat to our safety we are warned and there is generally a good police presence which tends to deter crime. When there is a crime police respond quickly and in force.

Irvine is diverse, there are lot's of cultures intermixed. It is one of the safest cities in the nation and the education provided is incredible.

This area has one of the lowest violent crime rates in the city. Unfortunately, drug use is prevalent among students, mostly high schoolers, who are most likely over- or under-stimulated. But aside from that, there are rarely issues, and if something does happen, the police are usually there within minutes.
