Review of Big Bear La,


Not for everyone
Star Rating - 12/28/2012
We moved to Big Bear Lake a couple of years ago from Los Angeles because of my husband's job. It is a somewhat pretty city, the lake is mirky and surrounded by trash, fishhooks, and dog feces. In the summer, it is nice to be up in the "high country" to escape the heat below, but the lake can become very crowded with few beach areas to enjoy. The locals.........well, let's just say they can be pretty rough around the edges. With very few high-paying jobs, Big Bear Lake and the adjoining Big Bear City, has a high poverty rate. It is a resort community with many retiree's. More cons than pro's for me.
