Mission Viejo
 

 
 
 
 
 

The city of Mission Viejo is mainly residential , although there are a number of offices and businesses within its city limit.  It is considered to be one of the largest master-planned communities ever built under a single project in the United States. It was named  the safest city in the United States in a 2007  Morgan Quitno crime statistic survey.  In 2009, it was named the safest city in California and the third safest in the nation, according to the CQ Press.  The city has numerous recreational areas such as the newly remodeled Norman P. Murry Community and Senior Center and there are about two parks per square mile.  Mission Viejo has three golf courses, The Mission Viejo Country Club, Casta del Sol Golf Course, and the Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club.  At the center of the city is a man-made lake, Lake Mission Viejo, a private association for Mission Viejo residents with custom waterfront homes, condominiums, boat rentals and beaches.

  
LAKE MISSION VIEJO is a reservoir entirely within MISSION VIEJO. About 5 miles (8.0 km) south of Santiago Peak,
a peak in the
Santa Ana Mountains, the reservoir is formed by an earth-fill dam across the canyon of Oso Creek, which is
part of the
Trabuco Creek and San Juan Creek drainage basin. The lake is not fed by urban runoff, it is maintained
so as to be safe for contact. Two man-made beaches are located on the north and east ends of the lake.
The lake is annually stocked with fish.
