Tustin, California: This Section of Orange County is Sweet! 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( Aug 05, 2010) I grew up in Tustin, California and hope to live there again someday. Just minutes away from beaches, Disneyland, malls, and vibrant Universities; the city's central location in the middle of Orange County is one of it's greatest assets.

There are a variety of neighborhoods in ...Read More Tustin, each with different appeal. Old Towne Tustin is the historic district, which offers a quaint old town with locally owned businesses and restaurants, surrounded by vintage homes--some built in the early 1900s. Tustin Ranch is a far more recent development; this family-friendly planned community features parks, greenbelts, and a golf course.
