This report examines the demographics of Ladera Ranch, California, analyzing population data to prove that the community of Ladera Ranch is a good location to open a business. Based on this data, the report will recommend the type of business that is best suited for the community. Ladera Ranch is a census-designated place located in south Orange County, California (“Ladera Ranch”, 2012); nearby cities include Mission Viejo, San Juan Capistrano, and Rancho Santa Margarita. Construction of Ladera Ranch began in 1999 with the goal of creating a community where residents enjoy recreational parks, clubhouses, shopping, and outdoor trails for joggers, hikers and bikers (“City Guide”, 2014).

However, based on its demographics, Ladera Ranch residents would also benefit from having a local indoor Family Entertainment Center to complement its existing infrastructure.
