Quality of Life Sliding
-
8/8/2006
I have live in Garden Grove for over 40 years so I feel I am more than qualified to comment on the quality of life here..It used to be the best place in So. Ca. to live..Open spaces, little traffic, great roads, nice neighborhoods, great neighbors.. This has drastically changed since the mid 70's. The influx of Asians and Hispanics has resulted in major overcrowding, road jams 24/7, housing prices out of sight, neighbors that want to continue with their style of living from the country they came from, will not adapt to American ways or abide by our laws. After meditating on the poor living conditions now in So. Ca., I have decided it is time to leave for a place that still have the old American values. Anyone who moves into this area will find that the quality of live here is poor..Housing and streets that were originally built to accomadate single family situations now has 4, 5 or more families living in one house, 5,6, 7 cars parked in the streets for each house also that is housing more than one family..You cannot really blame the people for looking for a better life, but you would want them to adapt to our way of life and not ruin our standard of living..This is only the tip of the iceburg..Politicans want more tax money so high rise buildings are now the thing. If you think traffic conditions, crowding is bad now, just wait a couple more years..This is another Hong Kong, Singapore situation in the making in so far as number of people per sq. mile..
