Riverside The Worst of Everything in One City
Riverside has just ranked 12 in terms of stressful living, and 2nd in
unemployment according to Forbes. We have the 3rd worst air pollution
in America. The schools and medical system are perfect for the illegal
immigrants its proudly and generously serves. Riverside used to have an interesting racial mix, but now the city is deluged with illegals who are sucking off the system and creating crime.
Not that we don't have enough home grown crime. We had a long tradition of violent drug gangs for close to a century. The Zodiac killer got his start in Riverside along with several other not so famous outside of Calif mass killers. Along with several Los Angeles gangs like the Crips and the Bloods moving in, and a few bike gangs, Riverside is a lovely place to stay barricaded in one's home with Gun in hand.
The weather is hot and nasty in the summer. It routinely is over a 100 degrees in the summer and in the winter it is biting cold for a southern california city. The air is so polluted it blocks out the sky with a lethal brown haze.It hurts to breathe here. Seriously.
Things to do. NOTHING. Unless you like going to church, eating at a chain
resturaunt, or staying home and getting drunk.You can however obtain crystal meth at reasonable prices.
Our politicians are an unsavory mix of incompetence married to corruption.
As for civic codes the City won't enforce them. You can let your 15 dogs, 12 goats and 60 roosters make as much noise as they like, make life a living hell for everyone within a mile and the City will do nothing. You can let your horse manure pile up 3 feet high and the city will not do anything. I promise you that.Yes Riverside is a sophisticated city where you can drink beer on your 30 year old beer stained couch on the front porch of your home.
Employment has never been good in Riverside. Most people who desire a living wage have a 2 hour drive to Orange or Los Angeles and back to look forward everyday.
Socially speaking Riverside seems to have more unwed mothers than any place I have ever lived in. Every day masses of teen aged girls / bay mommas stroll their new borns straight to welfare office.
People here are are generally angry, combative, low IQ, uneducated, either addicted or morbidly obese. They seem unified in a general sense of a very real, unfriendly, mean spiritedness that seems to pervade this place that is best avoided.
One reason to stop in Riverside! On your way to someplace else, in fact anywhere else, stop in Riverside and buy some gas. Then leave immediately.
I'm serious, this is not a comdey piece.
