Sejarah

Ahli-ahli kumpulan Orang Asli Amerika Tongva, Juaneño, dan Luiseño telah lama mendiami kawasan tersebut. Selepas ekspedisi 1769 Gaspar de Portolà, ekspedisi Sepanyol yang diketuai oleh Junipero Serra menamakan kawasan Valle de Santa Ana (Lembah Saint Anne). Pada 1 November 1776, Mission San Juan Capistrano menjadi penyelesaian pertama Eropah yang pertama. Antara mereka yang datang bersama Portolá ialah José Manuel Nieto dan José Antonio Yorba. Kedua-dua lelaki ini diberi geran tanah—Rancho Los Nietos dan Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana, masing-masing. Para ahli waris Nieto diberikan tanah pada 1834. Ladang Nieto dikenali sebagai Rancho Los Alamitos, Rancho Las Bolsas, dan Rancho Los Coyotes. Yorba pewaris Bernardo Yorba dan Teodosio Yorba juga diberikan Rancho Cañón de Santa Ana (Ladang Ternak Ngarai Santa Ana) dan Rancho Lomas de Santiago, masing-masing. Rancho lain di Orange County telah diberikan oleh kerajaan Mexico semasa tempoh Mexico di Alta California.Spanish and Mexican Ranchos of Orange County 

Kemarau yang teruk pada tahun 1860-an merosakkan industri semasa, peternakan lembu, dan banyak tanah datang ke dalam milik Richard O'Neill, Sr., James Irvine dan baron tanah lain. Pada tahun 1887, perak telah ditemui di Santa Ana Mountains, menarik peneroka melalui Santa Fe dan Landasan Kereta Api Pasifik Selatan.


Selepas beberapa percubaan gagal dalam sesi terdahulu, badan perundangan California meluluskan rang undang-undang yang membenarkan bahagian Los Angeles County di selatan Coyote Creek untuk mengadakan referendum mengenai sama ada untuk kekal sebahagian daripada Los Angeles County atau untuk mengasingkan dan membentuk sebuah daerah baru yang dinamakan " Orange "seperti yang diarahkan oleh badan perundangan. Pungutan suara sedemikian memerlukan undi 2/3 untuk pemisahan, dan seterusnya pada 4 Jun 1889, penduduk di selatan Coyote Creek mengundi 2,509 hingga 500 memihak kepada pemisahan. Selepas referendum itu, Los Angeles County memfailkan tiga tindakan undang-undang di mahkamah untuk menghentikan dan menghentikan pemisahan itu daripada berlaku, tetapi percubaan itu sia-sia. Pada 17 Julai 1889, satu referendum kedua diadakan di selatan Coyote Creek untuk menentukan sama ada kerusi daerah daerah menjadi sama ada di Anaheim atau Santa Ana, bersama-sama dengan pilihan raya untuk setiap pegawai daerah. Pada akhirnya, Santa Ana mengalahkan Anaheim dalam referendum tersebut dan dipilih sebagai pegawai yang bersandar, dengan beberapa, termasuk salah satu pelobi utama untuk penciptaan daerah, Henry W. Head, yang dipilih kepada Lembaga Pengawas ketika menjadi anggota Ku Klux Klan (walaupun "Klan tidak semestinya wujud pada masa ini, dengan Bedford [Nathan Bedford Forrest, Grand Wizard of the Klan] secara rasmi memberitahu Klan untuk membubarkan dan membakar semua barang."),PROFILES IN OC PIONEERS WHO WERE KLAN MEMBERS: HENRY W. HEAD, OC FOUNDING FATHER, March 15, 2011 dengan anak lelaki Head, Horace Head, yang dipilih sebagai Peguam Daerah tidak lama lagi menjadi daerah, yang dikenali, seperti yang dinyatakan oleh OC Weekly, mengancam "setiap orang Meksiko yang berjalan di depan rumah mereka dengan senapang patah ketika tidak membakar salib di depan rumput, "Bersama dengan Horace Head yang menyokong dan mempertahankan pertalian ayahnya dengan Ku Klux Klan. Dengan referendum yang berlaku, County Orange secara rasmi diperbadankan pada 1 Ogos 1889, sebagaimana yang ditetapkan oleh undang-undang negara. Sejak tarikh pembentukan daerah itu, satu-satunya perubahan geografi yang telah berlaku yang menjejaskan Orange County adalah apabila County dan County Los Angeles bersetuju untuk memperdagangkan tanah di sekitar Coyote Creek untuk menyesuaikan sempadan kedua-dua daerah untuk mematuhi blok bandar.The Birth of Orange County, 2010

Daerah itu dikatakan telah dinamakan untuk buah jeruk dalam usaha untuk mempromosikan imigrasi dengan mencadangkan syurga semi-tropika – tempat di mana pun dapat berkembang.Sleeper, Jim. "How Orange County Got Its Name" (1974). . Retrieved December 10, 2014.

Tanaman sitrus lain, alpukat, dan ekstraksi minyak juga penting untuk ekonomi awal. Orange County mendapat manfaat dari 4 Julai 1904, menyiapkan Pacific Electric Railway, sebuah troli yang menghubungkan Los Angeles dengan Santa Ana dan Newport Beach. Pautan yang dibuat Orange County boleh dijadikan tempat percutian hujung minggu untuk selebriti Hollywood awal. Ia dianggap sangat penting bahawa Pasifik menukar namanya ke Huntington Beach untuk menghormati Henry E. Huntington, presiden Pacific Electric dan anak buah Collis Huntington. Pengangkutan semakin bertambah dengan menyelesaikan Laluan Negara dan Laluan A.S. 101 (kini kebanyakannya Interstate 5) pada tahun 1920-an.

Pertanian, seperti yang melibatkan boysenberries yang dibuat terkenal oleh orang asal Buena Park Walter Knott, mula merosot selepas Perang Dunia II. Walau bagaimanapun, kemakmuran daerah melonjak pada masa ini. Penyiapan Interstate 5 pada tahun 1954 membantu menjadikan Orange County sebuah bilik tidur komuniti bagi banyak orang yang berpindah ke California Selatan untuk bekerja dalam bidang aeroangkasa dan pembuatan. Orange County menerima rangsangan lebih lanjut pada tahun 1955 dengan pembukaan Disneyland.

Pada tahun 1969, anak kelahiran kelahiran Yorba Linda yang berasal dari Orange County, Richard Nixon menjadi Presiden Amerika Syarikat ke-37.

Pada tahun 1980-an, Orange County telah menjadi daerah kedua paling ramai penduduk di California kerana penduduk menduduki dua juta untuk pertama kalinya.

Pada tahun 1994, krisis dana pelaburan membawa kepada pendakwaan jenayah bendahari Robert Citron. Daerah ini kehilangan sekurang-kurangnya $1.5 bilion melalui pelaburan berisiko tinggi dalam bon. Kerugian itu dipersalahkan atas derivatif oleh beberapa laporan media. Pada 6 Disember 1994, County Orange diisytiharkan kemuflisan Bab 9, yang mana ia muncul pada 12 Jun, 1996. Kemuflisan Orange County pada masa itu kebankrapan perbandaran terbesar dalam sejarah A.S.

Dalam tahun-tahun kebelakangan ini, konflik kegunaan tanah telah timbul antara kawasan yang ditubuhkan di utara dan kurang maju di selatan. Konflik-konflik ini telah menimbulkan isu-isu seperti pembinaan jalan tol baru dan menaikkan semula pangkalan udara yang dibatalkan. Stesen Udara Marin Corp El Toro telah ditetapkan oleh langkah pengundi pada tahun 1994 untuk dibangunkan menjadi lapangan terbang antarabangsa untuk melengkapi Lapangan Terbang John Wayne yang sedia ada. Tetapi inisiatif pengundi dan tindakan pengadilan yang berikutnya telah menyebabkan pelan lapangan terbang ditangguhkan secara kekal. Sebaliknya, ia menjadi Taman Besar Orange County.Guide to the Collection on the Development of the El Toro Airport. Online Archive of California. Retrieved on January 21, 2010.

Geography

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of , of which  is land and  (16.6%) is water. It is the smallest county by area in Southern California. The average annual temperature is about .

Orange County is bordered on the southwest by the Pacific Ocean, on the north by Los Angeles County, on the northeast by San Bernardino County, on the east by Riverside County, and on the southeast by San Diego County.

The northwestern part of the county lies on the coastal plain of the Los Angeles Basin, while the southeastern end rises into the foothills of the Santa Ana Mountains. Most of Orange County's population reside in one of two shallow coastal valleys that lie in the basin, the Santa Ana Valley and the Saddleback Valley. The Santa Ana Mountains lie within the eastern boundaries of the county and of the Cleveland National Forest. The high point is Santiago Peak (), about  east of Santa Ana. Santiago Peak and nearby Modjeska Peak, just  shorter, form a ridge known as Saddleback, visible from almost everywhere in the county. The Peralta Hills extend westward from the Santa Ana Mountains through the communities of Anaheim Hills, Orange, and ending in Olive. The Loma Ridge is another prominent feature, running parallel to the Santa Ana Mountains through the central part of the county, separated from the taller mountains to the east by Santiago Canyon.

The Santa Ana River is the county's principal watercourse, flowing through the middle of the county from northeast to southwest. Its major tributary to the south and east is Santiago Creek. Other watercourses within the county include Aliso Creek, San Juan Creek, and Horsethief Creek. In the North, the San Gabriel River also briefly crosses into Orange County and exits into the Pacific on the Los Angeles-Orange County line between the cities of Long Beach and Seal Beach. Laguna Beach is home to the county's only natural lakes, Laguna Lakes, which are formed by water rising up against an underground fault.

Regions of Orange County
Orange County is sometimes divided into northern and southern regions.  There are significant political, demographic, economic and cultural distinctions between North and South Orange County. A popular dividing line between the two regions is the Costa Mesa Freeway.

North Orange County, including Anaheim, Fullerton and Santa Ana, was the first part of the county to be developed and is culturally closer to neighboring Los Angeles County. This region is more Hispanic (mostly Mexican) and Asian (predominantly Vietnamese and Korean), more densely populated (Santa Ana is the fifth most densely-populated city in the United States with a population of over 200,000), younger, less wealthy and with higher unemployment. It has more renters, fewer homeowners and more registered Democrats as opposed to Republicans. There are notable exceptions to these general trends, such as strongly Republican Yorba Linda and affluent Anaheim Hills and Villa Park. North Orange County is predominantly flat, giving way to the Santa Ana Mountains in the Northeast.

South Orange County is more residential, wealthier, more Republican, less racially diverse and more recently developed. Irvine, the largest city in the region, is an exception to some of these trends, being a major employment center and having an Asian plurality (although Irvine's Asian population tends to be East Asian rather than Southeast Asian). South Orange County almost always includes Irvine, Newport Beach, and the cities to their southeast, including Laguna Beach, Mission Viejo, and San Clemente. Costa Mesa is sometimes included in South County,"South Orange County", REMAX site although it is located predominantly to the west of the Costa Mesa Freeway."Study Sees Jump in South OC Population", Los Angeles Times, October 18, 1986 Irvine is located in a valley defined by the Santa Ana Mountains and the San Joaquin Hills, while much of South Orange County is very hilly.

Another region of Orange County is the Orange Coast, which includes the six cities bordering the Pacific Ocean. These are (from northwest to southeast): Seal Beach, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Dana Point and San Clemente.

Commercial clusters — edge cities

Older cities like Santa Ana, Anaheim, and Fullerton have traditional downtowns dating back to the 19th century, with Downtown Santa Ana being the home of the county, state and federal institutions. However, far more commercial activity is concentrated in clusters of newer commercial development are found in the county's edge cities, the three largest being
 along Interstate 5 between Disneyland and Downtown Santa Ana
 South Coast Plaza to the Irvine Business Complex, and at 
 Irvine Spectrum

Anaheim—Santa Ana edge city
A contiguous strip of commercial development (an edge city) stretches from Disneyland through to MainPlace Mall along the I-5 Santa Ana Freeway, straddling the city limits of Anaheim, Garden Grove, Orange, and Santa Ana, and in fact stretching between the original downtowns of those four cities.

Entertainment and cultural facilities include Disneyland Resort, Angel Stadium, Christ Cathedral (formerly Crystal Cathedral), City National Grove of Anaheim - a live concert venue, Discovery Cube Orange County, the Honda Center - home to the Anaheim Ducks of the NHL (National Hockey League), and the Anaheim Convention Center. Health care facilities include CHOC (Children's Hospital of Orange County), Kaiser Permanente Health Pavilion (Anaheim), St. Joseph Hospital (Orange), and the UCI Medical Center.

Retail complexes include Anaheim GardenWalk, Anaheim Marketplace (claiming to be the largest indoor swap meet in Orange County with more than 200 vendors), MainPlace Mall, Orange Town & Country, and The Outlets at Orange, originally a mall named "The City" which was the centerpiece of a planned, 1970s mixed-use development by the same name. There is commercial strip-style development including big box retailers along West Chapman Avenue in Orange (Marshalls, Ralphs), along Harbor Boulevard in Garden Grove (Burlington, Ross Dress for Less), and around Harbor Blvd. and Chapman Ave. in Anaheim (Target).

Major hotels line Harbor Boulevard from Disneyland south to Garden Grove: Grand Legacy at the Park, Hilton, Marriott, Courtyard, DoubleTree Suites, Hampton Inn, Hilton Garden Inn, Homewood Suites, Embassy Suites, Residence Inn, Hyatt Regency, Marriott Suites, Sheraton, and the Great Wolf Lodge. The Orange County Transit Authority studied the corridor as the possible route for a streetcar, a proposal that was dropped in 2018 due to opposition from Anaheim and other city governments.

In addition to suburban-style apartment complexes, Anaheim's Platinum Triangle is undergoing transformation from a low-density commercial and industrial zone into a more urban environment with high-density housing, commercial office towers, and retail space. Anaheim envisions it as a "downtown for Orange County". The  area undergoing this large-scale redevelopment includes the city's two major sports venues, the Honda Center and Angel Stadium of Anaheim.
