Review of Redding, California


Redding, California- good place to learn.
Star Rating - 2/18/2019
I went to high school, in Redding. The summer heat, was the major problem. Homelessness was a problem, but not a big one, There weren't so many fires, or a lot of smoke. It was a safe town, and there were just 2 lakes, for fishing.
But I lived there, 3 times. The last time, fire, and smoke increased. The summer heat was still a problem. And homelessness increased, but not too bad, compared to other cities. But violence had become more of a problem, certain times of year. Traffic got worse. Shasta County became more greedy. Redding isn't a bad place to live, but I wouldn't make it the very best. Good place to learn, to drive, though! Or just to learn. If it wasn't for the smoke and summer heat, I might still be living, in Redding.

I recently left Redding after 20 years of trying to stay alive there and moved to the Midwest. The first month here i had to acclimate to life without transients sleeping on the lawns, thieves on bikes and wonder if my car was going to get stolen. When you live in Redding you become blind to all these things as it is the norm. Glad to be gone from Redding.
