It was 1890 when wealthy land owner Lewis Moulton purchased 8,000 acres called Niguel Ranch. Part of that ranch was turned into Laguna Niguel. Originally built as a master planned community this fairly new city became incorporated in 1989 as Orange County's 29th city.

Laguna Niguel is primarily a hillside town with approximately 65% open space. Many people are employed at the Federal Building, but the main industry of the area is real estate.

The City enjoys a healthy business climate and economic environment. Commercial, business and industrial land uses comprise eight percent of the total land area of the City.
