I am looking for a property in Irvine.

I will be stationed in Irvine starting in January.
I live with my 4 children, ages 4 and 2.
We are currently living in Chicago and had no choice of a house but a townhouse because Chicago is very hard to shovel snow.
Do most expatriates living in Irvine live in townhouses, apartments, or single-family homes? ?
I know there are advantages and disadvantages to each, but I can't imagine what it would be like in a different climate than Chicago.
Also, any recommendations on areas?
I am looking for rent within $5500.
Thanks in advance.

I used to live in Chicago. It's a nice place, but cold. LOL
It depends on what part of Irvine you want to live in, how many bedrooms you need, and if you can drive … but the climate is pleasant and comfortable year round. There is a lot of entertainment, the beach is only 15 minutes away by car, and you can even go skiing in the snowy mountains if you drive 2 hours.

With houses, you have to do the renovations and maintenance on your own, which is inconvenient. With apartments and condominiums, it's easier because they take care of the maintenance. If you have young children, I recommend a place with a park.

I think it is by far the easiest place to raise children.

Rent means rent, so maintenance is the landlord's obligation.

アーバインは結構暑くなりますよ
良いところに住みたいなら海に近い所?

日系幼稚園に入れたいならタスティン辺りが便利かもしれません
予算は十分あるようなのでアーバインカンパニー系の
年式の新しいアメニティの揃ったアパートが良いと思います
プールは当然、テニスコートなどがあるところが良いかも

夕方はどの高速道路も混むので下道で通勤できるところ、学校の送り迎え出来るのが便利でしょう
アーバインはアメリカじゃないアメリカです
治安は基本とても安全ですが車上狙いはあります
