About Laguna Niguel

Laguna Niguel in California is a city defined by the sheer amount of open space it has. With two community parks, 23 neighborhood parks, three mini-parks, one dog park, two county regional parks, two small county parks, and skate and soccer park, this town prides itself on providing a variety of ways for its citizens to enjoy the outdoors.

If you’ve been meeting with your Laguna Niguel tutor then you know that in the early 1800’s most of California belonged to Mexico, and most of southern California was broken up into ranches. Laguna Niguel actually started as Rancho Niguel, a ranch used primarily for sheep. The name was taken from the term Nigueli, the name of a Juaneno Indian village that was located in the area. Juan Avila was the first independent owner of this ranch, acquiring it in 1842 via a land grant. Even after California was incorporated into the United States, Juan Avila was able to hold on to his land, and remained the sole owner of this working ranch until 1865.

In 1895, the land that made up Rancho Niguel was bought by the Moulton Company. This company would eventually come to control over 19,000 acres.

In 1959 the Laguna Niguel Corporation was established by Cabot, Cabot, and Forbes, making it one of the first master planned towns in the entire state of California. They needed to establish a plan for the development of this town, and so contracted Victor Gruen and Associates to design the perfect plan for this 7,100-acre plot. This was a work in progress, and during this time the first land sales began in Monarch Bay and Laguna Terrace. In 1971 the Avco Community Developer got ahold of the plans for Laguna Niguel, and by taking direction from the original Master Plan they began making these blueprints a reality.

In 1986 the residents formed a Community Services District, the first step towards becoming a true city. Their hard work and dedication paid off and they became an incorporated city in 1989. Today the city is a bustling town, with plenty of access to Laguna Niguel tutors to help you make your dreams a reality. While they may not be raising sheep anymore, the town has embraced its ranch heritage by putting importance on providing wide open spaces for everyone to enjoy. These various parks and recreational areas provide fun for families and individuals, a way to get out and enjoy some sunshine.
