Untitled
the culture section is a big advertisement. should be deleted.
one of the external links on the Laguna Beach, CA page is to a page called lagunatics.com. It is a 'blind' for a real estate rental company. Lots of incorrect info.
Better choice? LB Chamber of Commerce? http://www.lagunabeachinfo.com or the city's art community's page? http://www.lagunabeachcity.net
the community theatre that produces "Lagunatics" (TM)©,. is www.nosquare.org
the Festival of Arts/Pageant of the Masters is www.foa/pom.org
the bit about the television show appears opinionated and juvenile. could be rewritten.
The entire first section of this article looks as if it was written by a tourist bureau and has no business being a part of wikipedia. --Preceding unsigned comment added by Celareon (talk o contribs) 05:38, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
Inaccurate and misleading demographic information
The median house price looks more like a mean at $2,000,000. The more accurate, and widely used median house price is somewhere along the lines of $930,000, which can be reached by looking at the assessed valuation of residential houses. Source: Laguna Beach FYE 06 comprehensive annual financial report. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 151.151.21.99 (talk) 20:51, 13 February 2007 (UTC).
Laguna Beach has a high crime rate for its size as reported in local newspapers.
On current Laguna Beach Home prices ---
Assessed valuation is a very misleading way to estimate the median potential sale price of a home in Laguna Beach. Homes still affected by Proposition 13 limits are often assessed at 1/4 of sale value. At the present time the cheapest house for sale here is listed at $850,000 ( as of August 2007 ) The $2 million figure may be a bit high, but not by much. Whether these lofty prices will hold during the current softening of the market is anyone's guess.
The median price for a single-family home in Laguna Beach as of summer 2007 was about $1.6 million, according to DataQuick, a real estate information provider that publishes the figure monthly. Many homes in Laguna are small cottages and the price per square foot was an eye-popping $1,137 in August, DataQuick reported. --Preceding unsigned comment added by Solagdude (talk o contribs) 02:40, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Cleanup
Why does this page need cleanup? It's good looking, and all the information is correct. I live in Laguna, and I can assure that all the information is completely accurate. I'm going to remove the cleanup template. -- ChunkyStyle (talk o contribs) 01:25, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
I removed the word "habitation". Don't need to say "habitation site of a civilization" - just "site of the civilization'. --JackBnimble10 (talk) 16:31, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
Tidepools
Why does this entire article on Laguna Beach not comment on its amazing tidepools? I'm sure that people would be interested to know about them. Just check out those tidepools near Seal Rock! Might be the best in the USA. Wakata --Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.85.120.61 (talk) 01:37, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- Because the tidepools are now more or less devoid of life. 68.231.216.160 (talk) 21:18, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
- Sory to contradict, but that's not true. The local tide pools still have things living in them the last time I lookedLaguna greg (talk) 20:54, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
"Regular" teenagers
The media section of the article says that the show Laguna Beach "made regular teenagers Stephen Colletti, Kristin Cavallari, and Lauren Conrad into celebrities." I only saw maybe 20 minutes total of this show, but nobody on it seemed the slightest bit "regular" to me. They were all exceptionally wealthy. I'm not sure there's an argument to be made that the comment isn't NPOV but something feels very wrong about the people on that show being called regular teenagers.

Partisan Affiliation
The partisan identification information is complete Bullshit. Anyone in Orange County knows this is one of the most liberal areas of South OC. These mentionings of voter registration are worthless as it only revels numbers on a district level which are heavily gerrymandered. The CD Laguna Beach is in is very conservative but this is hardly representative of the city. There is no way the PVI of plus whatever R is applicable to Laguna Beach and artist gay community. An example of editors blinding writing about politics without analysis. None of the information pertaining to the Republican representation matters in this article aside from who the actual representatives are. It is completely misleading to have the voter registration uncited as majority Republican. --Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki Mateo (talk o contribs) 08:54, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
- Feel free to fix it? Tim D (talk) 03:59, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
- True. WP:BOLD and remove any unsourced or questionable material! Law shoot! 04:05, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
- What is Wikipedia's policy on the length a notification must stay before it is corrected? I've seen markings such as citation, dubious, or whatever stay on a page for months. I would gladly remove the voter registration comment.
Transportation
There are only three roads in and out of Laguna Beach. Coast Highway (State Route 1) is a four lane highway that traverses the city from the north city limits to the south city limits along the westerly Pacific Ocean coast. Laguna Canyon Road (State Route 133) is a two lane highway that enters the city from the northeast and terminates at Coast Highway. The heavy influx of tourists and beach visitors during summer months makes driving very slow and difficult. During July and August the City operates a free bus shuttle system that runs along the two main thoroughfares.Xyphlus (talk) 17:30, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
Education
The Laguna Culinary "Institute" is a restaurant and wine shop with an unaccredited cooking school in the back, where the owners give classes when they feel like it. This should not be listed here, so I'm removing it. Laguna greg (talk) 21:14, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
File:LagunaBeachCA photo D Ramey Logan.JPG to appear as POTD soon
Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:LagunaBeachCA photo D Ramey Logan.JPG will be appearing as picture of the day on October 15, 2012. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2012-10-15. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! --howcheng {chat} 06:09, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
North and South Laguna
I have noticed that a South Laguna section is for the most part stranded, and I have some wonderful photographs that I have done while flying the coast over the last few weeks to update the stub. Perhaps it is time to create a North and South section here, merge the South Laguna page and perhaps detail the names of the coves both north and south of main beach. --WPPilot 18:13, 19 January 2013 (UTC)chat
- Thanks for adding your aerial photos, WPPilot. I agree with you that the South Laguna stub should be merged into this article. (I hadn't noticed it was out there by itself -- especially because the South Laguna, California link has always been a redirect to here.) A neighborhood section is typical for the well-developed (GA/FA) articles. So, during the next week, I'll write a neighborhoods section which would include North Laguna, Downtown, South Laguna, Three Arch Bay, Laguna Canyon, Top of the World, etc. The local names of the coves and beaches can be incorporated as something of sub-neighborhoods. -- CactusWriter (talk) 17:49, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
More citations?
Is it just me, or does this article need more citations? Especially the section on history. Surely we can do better? Beautiful photos here! 132.174.139.93 (talk) 21:39, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
Check Year
"1993 Fire A fire in Laguna Beach in October 2013"...
I presume one of the years is incorrect.
88.114.128.29 (talk) 20:23, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for catching that. I made a typo when I wrote that. I've now fixed it to correctly read 1993. Bahooka (talk) 20:30, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
