Orange Curtain

The Orange Curtain is a term used to describe the border between Orange County, California and the rest of California, particularly Los Angeles County. It is a sometimes derogatory, sometimes light-hearted term, depending on context. Residents of Orange County are more suburban than their big-city neighbors, but it could be argued the former are more classic yuppies. There is no physical Orange Curtain. The term stems from other ideological (communist versus capitalist) curtains in the world: The Iron Curtain in Europe and the Bamboo Curtain in Asia.
