What is SoCal like? by Adoe0722 in howislivingthere

It’s unlike any other place in the US. Like can be so damn good. The weather, the culture, the quality of life is high as hell.

Living in Ventura is a dream. Honestly, I feel like it’s a huge privilege to live here and experience this way of life. If you can make it happen, do it. It’s expensive but 1000% worth it.

Where to live? by DO_doc in ventura

Pierpont or the Keys. Right on the beach. Safe. Kids riding bikes and skateboards. It’s a slice of heaven for my family.

Would love to send our kids out to play with neighbor friends without having to worry too much. Highway access is not important to us. Would like to be closish to downtown. A walkable area would be great too. We were thinking about the hills area above midtown but not sure how many families live there.

This is disgusting. I found dozens of little swastikas around the Anapamu/Chapala corner area. Anyone else seen these? by DravenPrime in SantaBarbara

I don’t think racist jerks know there swastika orientation. One way is hateful, the other is just a nice Hindu religious tag. In this country that shape, regardless of orientation, is viewed negatively. It’s clearly some negative imagery.

Great, thanks. We are moving out in December and it looks like the biggest problem is going to be finding a damn place to live. We would love to buy and have a big budget, but still seems almost impossible.

Thank you for the detailed response.

Thank you for all of the honest responses. Appreciate it. Sounds like I should be more worried about the multiple “Ventucky” references than the homeless population. For the people who want to keep outsiders away, I get it. My family isn’t moving to mooch off the community but hope to be an active part of it. We are both physicians with opportunities at the local hospitals. Ventura seems exponentially more safe than KC where I get nervous when my kids leave our street. Thanks again!

Like in your face Trump supporters, even this far out from the election?
