Thousand Oaks

Thousand Oaks has been a city that has been greatly affected by the heroin epidemic. It has its good and bad parts like any other city. The people that think this is just a “rich” area obviously need to learn more about real estate because this is a town where you can buy a house cheaper than If you were to live in the San Fernando Valley. Since Los Angeles county has higher property taxes as well. So maybe before hating on this place, do some research and see how inexpensive it really is compared to living out in Los Angeles nowadays in an overcrowded area. I’m from La so I would know. I’ve lived here for a while now and really need to clarify this because I see so many stupid people assuming it’s just a rich area when it’s full of hard working class people just as I am and I am far from wealthy.

Thousand Oaks is awesome because it’s close to LA, and you can still buy a house for cheaper than most of anything in the valley or LA.

Westlake Village

A small city who has been hit hard by the heroin epidemic. All the people that talk trash about this “rich” city have never even lived here. Only the people that live in the hills have money. Otherwise we are all working/ middle class. I moved here since I couldn’t afford to live in the valley anymore since it’s so expensive now. Don’t believe everything you read. This town is not home to any of the shit that people are talking about. Where are these so called rich people everywhere? Lol. Cookie cutter houses? I live in an apartment complex that is made up of 98% Hispanic people including myself lol I live here in Westlake village and it is very diverse. Don’t listen to all the haters that think this area is just for rich people. Maybe do your research and look how much it costs to live here as opposed to live in the San Fernando valley, which is funny because a lot of people think that the valley is ghetto when if so why is it more expensive to live out there? There is a lot of crime around here for such a small city. Mostly because of the drugs. Not a good place to raise kids anymore.

I’m stupid so I assume that Westlake village is only for wealthy people even though I’m not from here.. durrrr
