Review of Thousand Oaks, California


Consistently one of the lowest crime rates in the
Star Rating - 12/23/2006
Over the last 20 years the Los Angeles metro area has grown outward to where Thousand Oaks is no longer a rural community but rather more of a suburb. While it's crime rate is still very low, I think a resident needs to be more cognizant of his surroundings than he would need to be say 10 years ago. Much of the property crimes seems to be caused by transients coming into the city to commit a crime and then fleeing back to LA. Crimes against persons in Thousand Oaks are very low and appear to usually be between individuals who know each other rather than random acts of violence.

Yeah Mike, you are right, but don't take away credit from our own society of tweakers and drug addicts. They work hard for their recognition and they deserve to get it. This place was Heaven a while back. Now you can't tell it apart from anywhere else in the Los Angeles area. Urban sprawl. Nothing more, with a tropical climate. Hope for the Best.
