Klamath Falls, OR
if interested -
12/5/2010I have been in New Mexico north to the boarder and all states west of that line, I can say Klamtucky is the worst place I have ever been the people are uneducated and prove that point every day. The people with money well are just not from this hell hole. So, sorry if you are one of the poor people that find anything good about this place, TAKE YOUR BLINDERS OFF. Drive by the area around fred meyers other wise known as the mills addition but keep your doors locked and dont stop. If someone reads this and says to themselves well if you hate it so bad just move, get the hell out, Trust me I am. after all thats what this place needs more people moving out. Lets try something engage your brain for just a minute more people move out less taxes that are collected then klamtucky just turns into a ghost town, OH WAIT, PLEASE, THATS WHAT THIS PLACE NEEDS, yes move out move out now so Klamtucky can be taken off the map.

AMEN suzanna -
12/5/2010you are RIGHT. I am stuck in this little bit of hell, I work for a man that only knows one thing MONEY he sees nothing or nobody but the almighty dollar, and of course he is not from this country, No surprise after all 99.9% of gas stations and motels are owned by these people. I TOTALLY agree the best day of my life will be the day I can see Klamtucky in my rear view mirror. until then I can only do my best to tell people about this black hole and I can only hope that some will listen before they give everything up to move here. But of course there will be people that move here with their loaded bank account and love it. The beautiful green lake, the fact that there are no stores here except of course Wal-mart but you can always drive 76 miles west to medford to just go to a goodwill that does not sell old Wal-mart stuff. And if you love snow well this is again the place to be, If you are lucky enough to see a snow plow, the plow will only move it to the center of the road. But in summer its again beautiful but only if you love the color green, thats because the migs they get everywhere and you cant go out anywhere in the town without them being all over you. Just ask the old timers here they dont want Kfalls to grow its fine just the way it is, until the meth house is next door to them, then they cry but sorry the cops here are as worthless as the town. Do you enjoy drinking and driving well this is the place to be because the only thing a person will get here is a slap on the hands and a little note saying "does not meet lodging criteria" and then on your way you go. And again if you have the money you can buy your way out of the ticket. BUT if you speed and I mean doing 26 in a 25 or just about anything over the posted speed limit well thats only money for a broke little town. If you are a truck driver well the best thing I can tell all of you is avoid Klamath Falls like the clap, you will get stopped for anything and I do mean ANYTHING, You will not get out of the ticket. But if you really just want to come here and see for yourself then I will tell you there is a gas and food mart downtown you will get the whole just of what this place is all about. So if you must let it be said you are warned, this place is only a trap for the working class and once it gets ahold of you it is hard to fight your way out of it. I will continue to try to find work somewhere else and get out of here. Our sign welcoming you to the town should say enter at your own risk.

NO quality of life -
11/20/2010I read messages from people that just cant say enough good about Klamath Falls, But I also see they move here from larger cities. So for those of us that have to work here and try to make a living its rough, mostly thanks to the old timers who want this place to stay small, no new business no new companies and jobs well there are really none. If I were to be asked if I dont like it here why not move, answer to that would be yes I have a job it pays just enough to put a roof over my head but very little more, there is no way to save anything to get ahead to try to move out of here. Sure if you like fishing and hunting it is a pretty good place if you want to live and do more than just that "SORRY" not going to happen. I deal with people everyday that are here on visa's working on farms and at gas stations. With people that made there life else where and came here with money in there pockets, who moved here because it is a small town then try real hard to turn it into a place that isnt what it is a small california, a small washington state or somewhere else but Klamath Falls is only what it is, and getting worse everyday. I lived here in 2004 just a few years ago people would walk down the street and look you in the eye and always get a good morning, a good day. but not any more now its NO better than Seattle, Houston, L.A. or any other large city. All the while the older people that live here just turn a blind eye and tell them selves that all is well and good. Please dont think I believe this is all happening only here but Klamath Falls is so small you see it alot more here than anywhere else and several times a day. All I can say is come here and see for youself, talk to people, look around, drive around, before you decide to pack up and move. As for me all I can say is OMGIH8KF

Don't move here -
11/17/2010I have been in this hole for almost a year and as soon as I can I am moving as far away from here as I can. There is nothing here, well except alot of drugs. The local cops are not worried about the drugs they are more worried about stopping someone doing 26mph in a 25 zone, and what ever you do don't drive around with out of state plates on your car. It would be nice if this S--T hole would just dry up and go away. But as long as the old timers are still around it won't they like it small after all they all have their retirement or are on welfare. If you read this and don't believe me just come here and look for your self. The north end of town has a truly beautiful lake BUT what ever you do don't swim in it you will get something you really don't want, and if you have dogs that like the water let them jump in they come out green. The people here are true meaning of small town small mind, very simple minded and most very mean spirited. again if this is in doubt just go into the downtown gas stations and other local businesses. Come to Klamtucky and find, well nothing. For the area homes that sell for the upper 100,000 to millions what a joke. There is nothing here oh wait we do have the GREAT store Wal-mart and of course the great K-mart and if you like resale shops we have a good will that sells Wal-mart and K-mart items for twice as much, oh how great this little back woods town is.. No jobs well unless you want to be a wal mart greeter or always ask the customer would you like to super size that. And of course there is always the gas stations, where you too can make not enough to live on. but if you just have to move to a small town, and you like drugs, no jobs, and one business after another closing COME ON DOWN.
