    I live in Palmdale on the east side and used to travel extensively whereby my house was once vacant for a year. I mistakenly left my house doors wide open (screen door wide open, main door open) as I loaded my car w luggage for a 30 day business trip. When I returned, I just knew my house had been broken into because the front doors were open!!! To my surprise, NOTHING was missing! As this gentleman stated, it really just depends upon where you live in east Palmdale which as stated, is slightly easier to navigate if you work in LA, Santa Clarita, Northridge, Burbank, San Fernando, etc.

    I grew up in the Antelope Valley 40 years ago. Im not suprised the battle between lancaster and palmdale still exists. Palmdale incorporated first back in the early 80's lancaster followed suit a few years later. During that time Palmdale was where the crime was, lancaster was safer. Now its debatable. One thing still stands. Eastside versus west side. Anything east of division street and the railroad tracks was considered ghetto. Seems it still is today.

    The Antelope Valley was a beautiful place to live and work until the late 70's early 80's. But unfortunately has systematically been destroyed by the county commissions and especially the city councils of both cities.
    Sadly, Palmdale is now enabling taco carts to inundate Palmdale. Horrible for property values. We even have a homeowner who keeps attempting to turn his home into a Mexican restaurant serving alcohol.
    We are now preparing to sell our property off Pear Blossom highway as For Sale by owner. As our experience with four real estate agents and their brokers over the years has been a lesson on who not to trust.
    If you are looking to live in a place where the city has allowed taco carts to take over without paying sales tax, while allowing customers to move away from sales tax paying brick and mortar restaurants, then this is the place for you.
    Just know that the AV will continue to slide into toilet along with your property values. Property values that I would promptly have reaccessed by the county to have them adjusted.
    Palmdale or Lancaster?
    How about neither!
    We're saying goodbye.

      I am currently growing tomatoes but you spend more on watering them then if you just purchased them from the grocery store. Gardens with partial shade work best as the midday sun wilts the leaves but they recover quickly. In the rural areas wild rabbits and gophers reek havoc on your garden.

These people should keep their trash in their car until they get home to trash it. I actually keep gum, wrappers or candy, wrappers, or McDonald bag with my wrappers in my purse.

Oh and I can’t stand racism and there’s an extreme aspect of politics that comes with that. Thank you so much your video is very informative and I realize it’s a tricky question but specifically -
    does either city have maga flags all over or am I going to see acab everywhere?
    It would be a no for me if either of those is true.
    I’ve lived in extreme Republican neighborhoods and some people were nice but some were racist and I feared for my safety, and I’ve lived in some liberal neighborhoods in which safety is a concern. It’s the extremely right wing and extreme left wing cities I don’t like.
