Ive lived in fresno california all my life. Its pretty shitty here. Its unbearably hot in summer and everything looks run down.

Its very common to run into people that dont speak much english, to the point where you will have trouble communicating. Just today I ordered a beef burrito at a restaurant and ended up with a vegetarian burrito. Getting really sick of all the ESL beaners that cant be bothered to learn the language of their own country.

Crime is not as bad as people say. I once had a guy try to steal my bike. I confronted him and he ran off. Another time I had a methhead try to punch open my car window. If I had a gun on me I would have killed him but California makes concealed carry difficult. Neither incident resulted in any loss to me.

There are virtually no high paying jobs here. If you want to be successful you have to move to one of the larger cities. The only high paying jobs in the state are working for monopolies like PG&E, big tech, and govt jobs. Maybe starting your own business but thats a crapshoot. Every other person in the entire state is poor. There are parts of fresno that are completely 3rd world. Ive seen walking tours of mexico that look better than here.

Homelessness is a real problem though. I see a bum on almost every streetcorner, even way out away from people like in empty fields. I walked down to walmart a few months ago and passed 3 different people who were visibly stumbling. Drug use is rampant. Most wagies show up to work high on weed. They seem to be permastoned. I dont blame them.
