Anzio Ct, Cypress

Reluctantly, we agreed to attend the Cypress Community Festival with our friends who live near there in the Sorrento neighborhood. I had never been to Cypress before and I was very pleasantly surprised by the community and the lifestyle that our friends have enjoyed for many years.

The Sorrento neighborhood seems to be located right in the heart of Cypress, easily accessible from the 605 freeway. It’s newer, planned community that sits among some older neighborhoods. It seems to offer the ideal lifestyle for our friend’s family. We were impressed with the lush, beautifully manicured landscapes of the common areas and parks. The homes are set in a curvy and cozy pattern of streets that brings character and safety.

More impressive is that our friend’s house sits dead center between three very highly regarded Orange County schools, Lexington Middle School, Landell Elementary and Oxford Academy. This was the major draw for our friends as they have one child at each school.

We actually rode our bikes to the Community Festival, about a mile and a half away. On the way they showed us site of the summer concert series where they took in an evening of classic rock the previous Saturday. Right across the street is the Skate Plaza and we spent a few some time watching one their kids performing some skateboard maneuvers in this pro-style skate park.

My friends seem to have it all there in Cypress. Who would’ve thunk it.
