Hesperia, CA
Pretty crappy place to call home. -
12/7/2021I’ve lived here on and off, most of my life. Grew up up in Hesperia, left for college and now am raising my kids here to be close to family. While the weather is nice (we get seasons and it’s usually sunny), the people here are rather awful. Low income makes for higher crime, higher drug use and and over all lower standards. The desert is full of trash (literally) scattered through out open fields. There’s very little to do up here and the food options are abysmal. Schools perform very poorly over all, although there are a few good ones here and there. It’s a lot of dirt. Not an attractive place and not one you’d likely be proud to call home. But cost of living is better than most of CA and it is a short 1-2 hr drive to the mountains, beach, LA and San Diego. Vegas is about 3hrs North. If you have high standards this isn’t the place for you. If you’re just looking for a decent, cheap place to live, Hesperia will do.
