Yorba Linda / North Orange County
Yorba Linda restaurant demand is shaped by an affluent suburban customer ($151,768 median HHI, 78% homeownership). Yorba Linda Town Center (Bristol Farms/Edwards Cinemas-anchored at YL Blvd/Imperial) is the premium dining and cinema-spillover node. Savi Ranch absorbs casual dining tied to Costco/Sprouts traffic. The rest of the city is residential with limited additional retail nodes.
