I go to school in Orange County and it's a nice, quiet area. Although, Orange County High School is the only high school in the county. Nevertheless, it is a pretty good school for the area despite the commute time.
Orange County is perfect if you're looking for a small town, country feel. It is a beautiful place and would be great to retire in. There is not much to do around here, and any cities are a half hour to hour long drive from any part of the county. The community is very tight knit despite it's large size. Many of the families that live here have been here for generations so there can be some corruption. Overall not a horrible place to live, you just have to make the most of it.
The Town of Orange county is filled with wonderful experiences; however, it lacks opportunity. Its a run down town that does not value the future of the new generation. There is only one high school that houses multiple districts, and there is only one park. Sadly it is run down, and isn't safe for those who want to experience outside life, and not lock up in their room playing video games.
