Hemet Reviews
Rating 3.11 out of 5 242 reviews
My family and I love that it’s less crowded here and less traffic. Our neighborhood is very clean, friendly and take pride in ownership. They look out for one another, which is nice for a change. It is very quiet, calm in our neighborhood and we also feel very safe. My favorite thing about Hemet is how you are surrounded by nature. There are many wonderful outdoor activities nearby, camping in Lake Hemet, hiking in the beautiful mountains of San Jacinto, birdwatching in the San Jacinto Wildlife area, and boat fishing in the Diamond Valley Lake!
Senior Citizen Life is as well as can be expected. Easy living, readily accessible to medical assistance, good doctors, lots of Urgent Care facilities, reasonable priced homes, tax base normal, centrally located for major cities such as Los Angeles, Palm Springs, Idyllwild, cost of utilities, food prices. The roads/streets could be in better condition (personal preference). Ideal for retirement "in the slow lane".
Found a beautiful home in southwest Hemet for a fraction of the cost of neighboring cities! It is very quiet, safe, clean, and our neighbors are friendly. Love the mountain views and the many outdoor activities close by.
