Lake Forest was incorporated as a city in 1991 and has continued to grow ever since including expanding the city limits in 2000 to include Foothill Ranch and Portola Hills. Two large man-made lakes in the city provided the city name. Lake one is known as The Lake Forest Beach and Tennis Club and lake two is known as The Sun and Sail club. They provide a fun atmosphere for the community and a place for social events.
The highest median sale price in Lake Forest occurred in November of 2017 and it was $710,990. Like most areas of Orange County the real estate has been on an upward trend from 2012 when the median sale price in Lake Forest was $304,000.
