Living in Ladera Ranch: Perfect for Families 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) Ladera Ranch is the kind of place that you see on television shows and movies. It’s a small suburb of Los Angeles that tends to cater to families. While there are plenty of single people who live here, you mostly see a lot of families around the playgrounds and waterparks and s ...Read More kate parks. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous - a perfect Californian postcard experience.

My children absolutely love the community waterpark, and the parks seem super safe, which makes us feel good about using them regularly. We’ve taken the kids on the family bike trails and we’ve gone on a date or two of our own on the mountain biking trails. We’ve experienced concerts in the parks and other family events that the town puts on. The school system has been great for our kids too, so far! For anyone who wants to have their children grow up in an almost idyllic , picture perfect town, Ladera Ranch is definitely the place to be. Read Less
