The Laguna Niguel community was established in the San Joaquin Hills in Orange County, California. “Laguna” comes from the Spanish language and means lagoon. The name “Nigueli” was adopted from the Juaneno Native Americans that once lived in the area. According to statistics obtained in 2013, Laguna Niguel encompasses 14.9 square miles of land, 0.05 square miles of water and has a population of 64, 652 spread across 17 neighborhoods. The community is bordered on the east by Trabuco Creek, on the north by the Laguna Hills and Aliso Viejo and on the south by Dana Point.
History of Laguna Niguel
The community was created on the Rancho Niquel Mexican land grant. Juan Avila owned the territory until 1865. At that time a drought annihilated the majority of his livestock. Three decades later, Lewis Moulton purchased the ranch and other lands sold by drought stricken farmers.
A corporation from Boston known as Cabot, Cabot & Forbes arrived in 1959 and founded the Laguna Niguel Corporation, with plans for developing a community. The construction of the Interstate-5 highway during this time influenced the arrival of many. Initially, the community developed along the coast and reached as far as Laguna Beach. With the help of the architectural firm Victor Gruen and Associates, a plan emerged that would span 7,100 acres. In 1969, the Avco Community Developer expanded the project. By this time, the community boasted 6,500 residents.
In 1973, Laguna Niguel Regional Park was officially opened. By December of 1989, Laguna Niguel became incorporated and the 29th city within Orange County. Local resident McKayla Maroney represented the community in the 2012 Olympics. With family and friends watching near and far, she received a gold and a silver medal in gymnastics.
