Impressions of Irvine
California is the top choice for many Chinese immigrants and the best choice for students studying abroad, and among them, Irvine, a young city in central Orange County with only a 30-year history, is especially favored by Chinese immigrants.
The city of Irvine covers an area of 74 square miles and has a population of over 210,000. It boasts the highest resident satisfaction in the U.S., an excellent public safety environment, outstanding urban development plans, vibrant technology and commercial development, world-class streets, bicycle and walking trail systems, as well as unparalleled parks, spacious open recreational spaces, and comprehensive community service facilities. If the greater Los Angeles area is urbanized countryside, then Irvine is a city within the countryside.
Irvine's excellent school district is well known throughout the United States. UC Irvine, a young university established only 52 years ago, has grown together with Irvine. To this day, it ranks 9th in the latest 2016 national public university rankings and is a comprehensive university with very strong academic capabilities. The primary and secondary schools in the Irvine area are also outstanding: the city has 13 Blue Ribbon (the highest honor for American schools) schools and 18 elementary schools ranked in the top 100 in California. Its powerful educational resources have created Irvine's prosperity today, which is also one of the important reasons why Chinese people want to settle in Irvine.
