#2 Best Places to Live in Ventura County
Current Resident: I've lived in either Thousand Oaks, WLV or Newbury Park in the 30+ years I have resided here. Kids went through the Conejo Valley school system, with only a few bad, clunker teachers. Rents are high. The apartment housings have no screening except for ability to pay. So we have lots of cases where the units that should have 3-4 people max, sneak others in after the fact, leading to an undesirable element to exist. Most of the sheriffs who I have observed are very professional and fair. But most neighborhoods with single family dwelling homes are clean and quiet and safe. Lots of MBZ, BMW, Tesla, Jaguar, Porsche, Bentley cars. There is even a Ferrari dealership in WLV. Pot shops and farms are slowly making their way in. Nightlife is available, but higher end and reserved- It's not the crazy San Fernando/Hollywood/LA type scene. We've had some tragedies and wildfires, but it's still a beautiful and friendly community. Read 339 Reviews
