Review of Los Angeles, California


Sylmar
Star Rating - 10/14/2009
Sylmar has good and bad traits. If you lived here your whole life like I have you will know what I am talking about. We have a lot of gangs including the Sanfers, Sylmar, 818, AGL, and more, but if you are street smart you should be fine. There are a lot of rapes in our area especially at the parks. Cops always take their time when called. My brother got robbed and stabbed here. My sister got raped. I, however have learned to keep myself out of these situations. I always take a stick or bat when walking or jogging. Seriously. Whistles are handy. Most of our streets aren't well lit. Sylmar does has nicer areas just like any other city. Hope this helped.
