Lake Forest is a city in Orange County , California , United States . The population was 58,707 at the 2000 census. Lake Forest incorporated as a new city on December 20, 1991. Residents voted to name the city Lake Forest, after two expensive master planned residential communities, denying the longer claim to the territory by the community of El Toro. Since being founded, it has expanded its limits to include the newer communities of Foothill Ranch and Portola Hills . The multiplicity of names often creates confusion: some people in the Portola Hills neighborhood, for example, can receive mail addressed to them at Portola Hills, Lake Forest, or Trabuco Canyon . Lake Forest (along with its neighboring cities Mission Viejo and Irvine ) is ranked as one of the safest cities in the country. The private research firm Morgan Quitno ranked Lake Forest as the 15th safest city in the United States. The city has two lakes from which the city gets its name. The lakes are man-made and custom homes ranging from large to small, and condominiums line its shores. The Lake Forest Sun and Sail Clubs feature tennis courts, gyms, basketball courts, Bbqs, volleyball courts, multiple swimming pools, saunas, swimmings, hot tubs and club houses for social events. El Toro Road at the Interstate 5 freeway was the epicenter of the early Saddleback Valley from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. However, the area gradually deteriorated, and most of the shops closed or moved to other cities. After years of planning, the City has worked with the property owners of some aging strip malls and developed the "Arbor at Lake Forest" commercial district. The new center can now compete with the more upscale shopping centers and cities that surround Lake Forest like Mission Viejo, Irvine, and Laguna Hills. Foothill Ranch and Portola Hills brought new homes to Lake Forest in the farthest east portion of the city. The City of Lake Forest hosts the headquarters of Oakley and for hard-drive maker Western Digital, telecommunications software developer Greenlight Wireless Corporation, Barbeque retailer Barbeques Galore and skateboarding footwear company Sole Technology, Inc., as well as the ever popular Etnies, Tilly's, and many more top name branded companies. In addition, one of the country's notable mega-churches, Saddleback Community Church, is located in Lake Forest. Lake Forest is also home to two county parks. Whiting Ranch in the eastern part of the city was the site of a famous Mountain Lion mauling in 2004 that captured the West Coast news media.[1] Lake Forest's central proximity to surrounding areas and immediate access to the 5 and 405 freeways, Irvine's Business Spectrum, Irvine Spectrum and short drive to Laguna Beach makes it a very desirable place to live. In 2007 the City synched its traffic lights and to the dismay of many Mission Viejo commuters who drove through Lake Forest to Irvine, shortened drive times up and down Bake Parkway, Lake Forest Blvd. and El Toro Rd. in order to alleviate congestion from Foothill Down to the 5 Freeway. Heritage Hill historical park is home to some of the oldest buildings in the county including the Serrano Adobe, the old El Toro School House, and St. Georges Episcopal Church. In 1994, Kathryn McCullough became the first African American mayor of any city in Orange County. She currently serves as a member of the City Council.
