I have grown up in Santa Clarita my entire life (23 years.) I have always felt safe here as a hispanic woman with fair skin. I enjoyed the Westfield mall, skating rink, Mountasia and aquatic center growing up here as a child. It was also very fun and convenient to have six flags less than twenty minutes away from my house! The people here are affable and kind towards others for the most part. No city is perfect! What I would like to see more of is more 'mom and pop' stores and restaurants and less chain businesses. I would like to support small business and families instead of large corporations. I would also like to see more of a diverse population here. It is predominantly a caucasian population and it would be great to get a mixture of cultures to share and learn with each other! Overall, Santa Clarita is a great place to raise a family and grow up in. The schools are well rounded and it is close to Los Angeles and the beach!
