I moved to Canyon Country to get away from the insanity.
Not every city is perfect. Calm down and breath and Welcome to Canyon country. I’ve been here for 16 yrs and its not that bad every city has its drama.
It’s a shame, CC has always been a disadvantaged/underserved area compared to Valencia/Stevenson Ranch.
The major area causing problems is the Sierra Hwy./Soledad Cyn. areas—lots of Section 8 and illegal alien problems! They’re not thankful for what they’ve been Given and act and behave Liberal.
Please you know not of what you speak . I’ve lived here for 50 years, and all the CC haters stay safe in the closets of your Valencia homes! Lord knows not one person there is up to no good . Get a brain check back in then comment .
Talk about where does judgmental and biased problems arise…. smh. & lmfao .
I pick up passengers and drop them off. Canyon Country areas like Sandy Dr. Jason Dr and all those packed in apartments are full of Ghetto trash. Lots of shady stuff going on over there 24-7. Just keeping it real.
