Living in Orange

Orange is a unique city located in the US state of California. It is known by its nickname as ‘Plaza City’ because of the way it has been built around a plaza, being the only city in Orange County to have this feature. The Orange Plaza itself is a very popular place for visitors and residents, and expats living in Orange will find plenty of other sights and attractions in the city such as Peter Canyon Park, the Orange County Zoo, as well as being able to take in the city’s fascinating pre-1920s architecture, which has been kept by the city rather than being demolished as a number of other cities have chosen to do. Many films have been shot on location in Orange because of these buildings. Expats living in Orange will also be able to enjoy shopping in areas such as The Outlets at Orange and enjoy the city’s many restaurants and bars.
