2022 Map of Lake Forest

About this map

Lake Forest and the surrounding South Orange County communities are defined by the dense residential expansion extending toward the foothills of the Cleveland National Forest. This modern survey reveals the suburban conversion of the landscape, where the historical heart of El Toro is surrounded by newer planned developments like Foothill Ranch, Portola Hills, and the edges of Mission Viejo and Irvine. The map preserves the geography of the era's major transportation arteries, such as the Foothill Transportation Corridor and El Toro Rd, which bridge the gap between the urban flats and the canyon country.
