Aguila, Aliso Viejo

Like all of Aliso Viejo, Gauguin Circle should be avoided like the plague if you are young, social and want to be anywhere near where all of the action is. While the residents of Aliso Viejo are friendly and outgoing, they all have families, curfews and lists of things to do around the house every weekend; partying is definitely not one of them. So, if you do not want to wind up alone in your home watching reruns in your underwear with a half-empty bottle of Jack in one hand, then do not move to Gauguin Circle.

However, if you do have a family and you do want a nice home on a quiet street where the neighbors are kind, but, do not get in your business and your children are free to roam the streets without fear of them getting kidnapped, then do move to Gauguin Circle! Just keep in mind that this street is on the outskirts of Aliso Viejo which means you are out in the middle of nowhere while living in the middle of nowhere, but, if you want to be surrounded by greenery and silence, go for it! Ok, fine – there are some grocery stores and restaurants around. You aren’t going to starve!
