Review of Apple Valley, California


Jobs
Star Rating - 1/26/2009
After having lived in Apple Valley for 22 years, came here in 1987 I have learned the really hard way that the employment situation is completely hopeless. Unless you are a true professional, Doctor, R.N., Lawyer...etc you stand no chance of obtaining a good job locally because they just don't exist here. But if you are into working at fast food, wal-mart, k-mart, target and the like your in your element and stand a good chance of getting a job. Sadly I bought my house in 1997 and at the moment would have a hard time selling it, but just as soon as the housing market picks up even just a little, it's going on the market and I and my Son are out of here, I'm so tired of hearing how good paying jobs are coming to the desert, it's been 22 years and their still not here, if I continue to wait my child will starve to death. With the years of experience I have in this God forsaken place, my best advice to anyone considering a move to this desert is please don't, you don't know how sorry you will be because the "good" jobs will NEVER come.
