Bakersfield

The closest thing to Texas you are going to get in California. Rent here is one the cheapest in California. Land is very affordable here. It is an hour and half away from Los Angeles and the Central Coast, and is thirty minutes to an hour away from the mountains. It's boring as fuck unless you like riding dirtbikes, farms, oilfields, 4-wheeling, going to concerts, shows, the Kern county fair, swimming, drinking, or doing drugs. High quality Methamphetamine can be found in any trailer park and is a very popular drug of choice here. It has the same air quality as Los Angeles, can get up to 110 degrees during the summer, and has the highest rate of teen pregnancy and STDs in the country. Girls are hot here but they get around like hula hoops and will get pregnant and have your kids to receive welfare benefits and child support. Liberty High, Stockdale High, Centennial High, Garces, and Bakersfield High are the best high schools here. Colleges are Bakersfield College and Cal State University of Bakersfield where Tito Ortiz went to. Best neighborhoods to live in Bakersfield is in the Northwest and Northeast. Neighborhoods you want to stay far away from is Oildale and neighborhoods near and/or on Cottonwood road and Martin Luther King Blvd. Gangs here consist of various sets of Crips that roll deep as fuck claim East Side, country boy Crips on the South Side, and West Side Crips. Bloods are few in number. Peckerwoods are in Oildale.
