How Rancho Tierra Apartments was built
Rancho Tierra stands on Myford Road, a name the Irvine family used and the same one the Boy Scouts gave the camp they ran in Peters Canyon from 1952 to 1988, on land the Irvine Company later handed to Orange County.
It belongs to a family of apartment communities raised across Tustin Ranch under the Irvine Company's plan and given Spanish ranch names: Alisal, Maderas, Mariposa, Monterey, Santa Fe, Tierra and Veracruz. Tierra simply means land or earth. The naming was consistent because the developer was, and because the ground really had been a ranch.

The Rancho Tierra Apartments lifestyle
The city runs seventeen parks of its own. The largest is Veterans Sports Park at Tustin Legacy, 31.8 acres on Valencia Avenue with lighted ball diamonds and multi-use play fields, followed by Tustin Sports Park at 22 acres on Robinson Drive.
Citrus Ranch Park holds 16.9 acres off Portola Parkway, where the city keeps a hilltop gazebo and a lemon grove knoll. Cedar Grove Park on Pioneer Road covers 10.7 acres and carries a nature trail and a grass amphitheater.
Old Town repays a walk. The sidewalk tour along Main Street and its side trips runs a little over two miles past buildings that go back to the 1880s, and the Tustin Area Historical Society keeps its museum at 395 El Camino Real.
