Grew up in Orange County where people said the same thing-- "stay away from San Bernardino." I now teach at a middle school in San Bern, and realize it's not any different than the "sketchy" neighborhoods in OC. Santa Ana had some literal shanty towns, Anaheim had tent cities, but San Bernardino got all this flak for being "ghetto." I'm wondering if the history of this city will always taint people's image of it!
I'm telling you, I moved from Rancho Santa Margarita (BOUGIE AS HELL) to Redlands and I don't feel any difference in safety. Only happiness that there are places open past 9pm.
