Review of Tehachapi, California

Quality of Life
Star Rating - 5/2/2011
This place is for people who came over in the Santa Maria and want to be left alone, have religious freedom, and rule obeying populace. Break the rules of the clan and you are outcasted. One family here who's son commited suicide was taunted so badly about being gay (and I can tell you there is NO tolerance for being gay, different, or anything in between) yet the family kept quiet. I know from living there that they had to or the neighbors would have torn them apart. These people are not nice!

I'm sorry you had this experience, but it must be an isolated one. Gays are open here and accepted as any. There are gay/transgender support groups. When one person is ignorant to acceptance, that does not speak for the town.
