He is a City Ninth In County For 1949 Building (Continued from page 1) higher building outlay in the form of business blocks, industrial plants and apartment buildings, although that is merely a guess. There was no breakdown in the assessor's data, as to type of buildings. Perhaps another surprise is to find Anaheim ninth down the list of county communities, and Fullerton only sixth. For all her progressive spirit, as indicated by fine parks and top-flight baseball plant, Anaheim was out-built by such communities as La Habra, Costa Mesa, Garden Grove, Laguna Beach and Orange; not to mention Santa Ana, Newport Beach and Fullerton. And Fullerton was outbuilt by these same communities, excepting Orange, which was next to Fullerton, and Laguna Beach. Anaheim had rather a small edge over Westminster, San Clemente and Buena Park. In third position in the county, following Santa Ana and Garden Grove, was Newport Beach school district, with 388 buildings, of which 375 are within the city of Newport Beach. Showing the harbor area's rapid strides, Costa Mesa school district is close on the heels of its next-door neighbor, with 359 buildings. La Habra school district leads northern Orange county with 307 buildings, of which 290 are within the city of La Habra. Then comes Fullerton, with 302 buildings for the city and school district, 293 being within the city. Orange school district ranks next with 235 buildings, of which 222 are inside of the Orange corporate limits. Orange building took a sharp upswing in the latter Park, 124, and Huntington Beach 101, of which 77 were within city of Huntington Beach. No other community reached 100 buildings. Tustin had 67 within the city), Seal Beach 66 within the city), Capistrano Beach 58, Placenta 54 (29 within city), Yorba Linda 30. The were widely scattered among maining areas. San Juan Cabrillo, for example, had but one buildings in the year. Just how fast the county is whole is going ahead with building is shown by a comparison 1945 and 1950 figures. In there were a total of 57,246 builings on the assessment roll. In intervening five years there been an increase of nearly 50 percent, with 28,260 new buildings added, making a total this year 85,506 on the assessment roll. Well, there's the picture of rent building trends. If it kills up there may be a surprise or in the impending census.
