All you'll do is drive here. That's what we do. I live in Orange which is about 15-20 minutes without traffic to Newport Beach. If you're looking to live in Orange County you can always get to the beach.

We have it! You'll see panic when it rains.

I go regularly. I live so close that its a very short drive on the freeway. You can access from side roads easily also.

Housing in Orange County is much more expensive than other cities. My little 2 bd/2 ba condo is currently valued at $320,000 and my place is over 20 years old, no garage, and I dont have my own laundry room. From what I gather I could probably get a giant house in Georgia for the same amount. But I wouldn't live anywhere but here!
