Rating 3.37 out of 5 268 reviews
San Bernardino County is amazing! From the mountains to the desert, San Bernardino County is very diverse. There are many programs that help enhance the residents of the county. I have resided in San Bernardino county for all my life. I participated in Girl Scouts for thirteen years, and I have attended the schools in the county. I also attend a Baptist church, in San Bernardino city, where I earned many volunteer hours working with the community. I attended San Bernardino Valley College and graduated with an AS degree in Biology, and an AA degree in Physical and Biological Sciences. I currently attend classes at California State University San Bernardino, where I plan to graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Biology. The educational program in San Bernardino County is very accommodating, and supportive when it comes to representing their students. San Bernardino County meets the needs of its residents and I am glad to be one.
I have lived in downtown San Bernardino for about eight years and although I consider it my home it has many flaws. There are abandoned broken buildings, trashed streets, people who aren't right in the head, prostitutes, and homeless people. To many outsiders it may seem like a bad place to live in but once you get used to it, it starts to feel like home. I would like to see some changes, because even compared to when I first got to live here its not as bad but it does not mean there isn't room for improvement.
There are many excellent colleges and universities in San Bernardino County. There are plenty of places to have fun. The downside of the county is the large amount of pollution. There are many contributing factors to pollution. For instance, there is an increasing amount of warehouses opening production, and the trains and freeways also contribute significantly to pollution.
