Which French consulate covers Anaheim?
California is split “north / south” between Los Angeles and San Francisco without a published county list, but the Los Angeles security plan names Orange County among its areas, so Anaheim goes to Los Angeles.
Is there a French office closer to Anaheim?
No honorary office of the district is closer to Anaheim than Los Angeles itself, so the consulate is also the practical door.
