I've lived in Chowchilla, CA for about four years. Summer weather is hot; almost never lower than 95F until the end of August. Horribly dry; besides native plants and ones that are watered, all vegetation is dead. Go outside, it'll be the same thing every day:sunny, hot, hazy (smoggy), and cloudless. The winter is alright. When it rains things start to turn green and it feels clean. When there is no fog or smog you can see the mountains which are a sight for sore eyes.
Large illegal population which is a degrading sight. People constantly use ain't, I seen it/you, and other incorrect forms of grammer. There are no Targets, Wal-Marts, Michaels, Dillards, etc.; however there is a Rite Aid and a Savemart.
Most of the people here are set on things never changing. For example, when the Savemart moved from one side of town to the other people had a fit because they had to drive an extra three minutes to get to the grocery store, to buy beer of course!
