Hidden Canyon in Irvine

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
I think one of the families I met on the street are Persian. None are East Indian so far. Toll Bros. is doing a "meet and greet" party for all the Phase 1 and 2 buyers in a couple of weeks to get to know each other so I will get a better idea of the mix of people buying.
It means: Coming to an IUSD near you, this year's Cultural Appreciation Day theme is ... "White People". Complete with -- *Square Dancing! *Play Horseshoes! *The Principal will BBQ hamburgers for everyone! *Each room mom will supply a Tater Tot Casserole! *Music featuring Lynyrd Skynyrd, Jason Aldean, and more! ***Parents, if you'd like to visit, please park on the lawn!
Eyephone, I'll be your "Token White Friend".
Now it's called "OC Fair".
But I think that's not going to be that way for long.
I think it's a lot easier for Toll Brothers to say that they're strict about not having investors when demand is high in these early phases. Once the pent up demand gets done and the phases aren't immediately sold out, I think that they'll become a lot more lax about their philosophy.
Some just worries that if one community was overly dominate by one ethnic group it might alienate or turn off other potential buyers in the future.
Although Irvine population has about 30-40% Asians, these new developments of recent years have about 80%+ Asians. Just look this pic of Cypress Village Elementary School and it shows a good reflection of home ownership here.
Where's Waldo?

Just as a point of clarification... FCBs can be local.
It's interesting that "diversity" in Irvine now means "I love white people!".

Maybe this "FCB" thing is really just a myth.
I heard that last year that van loads of FCBs descended on OH to tour the models but I heard from several people recently who now live in Trevi/Amelai OH that their neighbors are locals, not FCB.
I now hear that van loads of FCBs had been cruising around in Hidden Canyon but Phase 1 and 2 are entirely non Asian.
While all of the above is hearsay to me, it does make me start to wonder whether this FCB thing is a myth.
