A Couple Transformed Their 300-Square-Foot Studio into a Colorful and Organized Home

Khirad and her husband moved into this small 300-square-foot studio apartment in Yorba Linda, California, earlier this year. “The building actually used to be a hotel, and was only converted into housing this past year. We are the first people to live in our unit, and it’s interesting because it has the drawbacks of being a former hotel room (size, very small kitchen) but some really nice benefits too (a really nice AC),” she begins.

OC residents whose homes were damaged in Norte Fire describe hurdles after filing insurance claims

Three weeks after the Norte Fire damaged or destroyed seven homes in Orange County, some residents whose homes remain standing say they are facing serious smoke damage and insurance challenges as they try to return home. Among them is San Juan Capistrano resident Cyndi Dudek, who evacuated her neighborhood as the fast-moving fire approached. “It was very frightening,” Dudek said. Dudek had moved into her home in August. Two months later, on October 16, the fire reached her neighborhood. She said conditions deteriorated rapidly as she evacuated. “From the time I went from my front door just to my car, we were gasping. The smoke was in our face,” she said. Although homes one block away were destroyed, Dudek's home remained standing. Still, she said the property suffered extensive smoke damage. “We lost the habitability,” Dudek said. She said a strong odor remains throughout the home and that ash continues to cover nearly everything inside. Dudek said she is especially concerned because her husband has compromised lungs. An expected lawsuit alleges the destructive Norte Fire in Orange County was caused by a San Diego Gas & Electric equipment failure. The couple filed a claim with the California FAIR Plan, the

When grunge ruled the airwaves and flannel was practically a uniform, seven guys in vintage suits, slicked-back hair and a whole lot of brass crashed the party. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy wasn’t interested in following the musical trends of the ’90s. Instead, the band reached back nearly a century, dusted off swing and jazz, and gave it a punk-rock pulse.

Rents Are Already High - USC Expects Them to Soon Be Even Higher

LOS ANGELES - Renters in the county are expected to soon pay even more for average monthly rent, according to a USC forecast released Tuesday.

The county's vacancy rate is projected to fall from 5.6% in June to 4.87% as renters fill vacant units.The forecast covers the broader county market, including the Westside. Its averages do not predict rent changes in individual neighborhoods.The report found Los Angeles and Orange counties remain chronically short of apartments, along with Ventura County.

During the first half of 2026, permits ran 60% above the previous year's monthly average.But the report said it remains unclear how
