Apple Valley, CA
Desperate Desert -
10/3/2012The High Desert as a whole has gone down hill since the mid '90s, when the state thought it a good idea to break up the gangs in L.A. and move them to the High Desert. Don't know what they were thinking! The gangs just brought more homies and family with them and established New ground in the desert. Getto choppers fly overhead all night.
Apple Valley has tried to stay out of the loop longer, because Hesperia and Victorville had more infrastructure early on. Apple Valley held out on commerce till mid 2000's.
I got so tired of it that I moved out of the area, for another state in 2001. Great weather for retirement though. Jess Ranch Apple Valley is isolated from most nonsense, for retirees.
