Born and Raised. TO from a teen perspective.

I've lived here my entire life, which I suppose isn't that long only 17 years.
Its been a nice place to grow up, lots of opportunities and places to go as a kid. Park and Rec programs are fun till your like 10 and the teen center gets boring when you're 13. Then ya start hanging out at the Oaks mall, a nicely redone mall with shops mostly too expensive to buy anything in, and hiking a bit at paradise falls.
Thousand Oaks High School is an alright school, with like 2,500 kids. The food sucks and so does the football team. You get alot of good opportunities there with different programs for job internships and clubs.
Crime in Thousand Oaks is pretty funny. The worst it gets is kids loitering, smoking weed, or just being harassed by cops for being suspicious. Except for the Toca's gang which is uhh..well you can go look that up on your own.
Overall, if you're a rich and a republican come here to settle with your wife who is surely a soccer mom to live out your days doing whatever it is that makes you happy. or whatever.
