Current Resident: A beautiful and safe place to live. What used to be an area only for snowbirds and elderly, is starting to turn into a great community for younger families who want to be around the best schools in the desert. Most of Indian wells is a very short drive or walking distance to private schools, and the best charter school great for walking, hiking, hiking, and so centrally located to anything you would ever need....

Current Resident: Grew up here and have always lived here till now. Moving for school not because of the area. Although I can say is that city is definitely beautiful can be calm but can also be very fun! I recommend to those who have not been and are used to nice fresh weather to not come during February- August due to the extreme high temperatures. Overall super nice place to vacation on for those who plan to just cruise through the city! Especially for the summer it's a great vacation destination.... Read 110 reviews

Parent: We enrolled our son for his junior year in the fall of 2020. We made the decision because the online learning offered by our public school did not work for our son. Fusion staff met with us to determine the appropriate classes to take and even offered and conducted a 'trial' session so our son could get a feel for how it would work. Even though a lot of the year was conducted virtually due to COVID it was still a great experience. One-on-one online classes are very different than one teach and 25-30 students. 5 out of 6 of my son's teachers took the time to really get to know him, understand how he learns and what makes him tick. The teachers are able to connect with students at Fusion in a way that just is not possible in larger environments. (6th teacher was still good and class was a positive experience - there just wasn't the same level of personal connection.)... Read 3 reviews

Current Resident: I have lived in Thousand Palms since I was 5 years old and it has been quaint place to live, in my experience. The fire department that has recently been made in the last few years has been a significant renovation to the town's infrastructure. There is a lot of local job opportunities due to the variety industries available (i.e. Costco, Walmart, Sam's Club, etc.). The local park is a great resource for physical activity and kid's sports. Thousand Palms is minutes away from major cities including Coachella, Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage and Palm Desert!... Read 17 reviews

Current Resident: Just minutes away from Palm Springs, right by the freeway to hop on and get to LA/San Diego for a weekend trip, Cathedral City it surprisingly very up and coming. We moved here about 5 years ago and it has changed dramatically as far as things to do. Dogs parks and community attractions makes this a great place to raise a family. It's not like Los Angeles as for things to do(where we came from) but it's so much better! You can get so much done in a day, doesn't have the stress of traffic, and everyone is super friendly. Yes, the heat is almost unbearable, but you learn to adapt to it. Early morning and evenings are a great time to be outside. I feel super safe and everything here is just super accommodating, affordable, and convenient. I hope it stays this way!... Read 106 reviews

Current Resident: When I did decide to move from Los Angeles I researched many cities in California . Desert Hot Springs is a small town and has a small town feel .I feel safe here, it is quiet and peaceful. Light traffic , convenient shopping , pretty desert and mountain views are all appealing to me . If you can’t find what you need the whole Coachella Valley is close by .Palm Springs is just 10 minutes away and provides Walmart ,Trader Joe’s, Home Depot , Target ,etc plus tons of places to eat, museums ,concerts and activities. If you like the outdoors there’s places to hike and Joshua Tree National Park is close by.And I can still drive into Los Angeles if and when I need to as it is only two hours away. Did I mention casinos too? Yes it’s hot in the summer and it can get pretty windy at times but even that has not been a turn off. I totally recommend my new city Desert Hot Springs ....

Current Resident: It is a great place to be at and live. There are many shops around the area where you can find many things ranging from food shops, hair salons, bakery’s, and even big brand store such as food 4 less and 99cent store. There are also many fast food places such as Starbucks, Carl’s Jr. Pizza Hut, litter ceasers and even my Donald’s. Their is also many festivals that go around in the area such as the winter festival, and one of the big festivals in the area is the tamale fest that gets food vendors from all over the area where they come together and sell different types of food. I find Coachella to be a good place to live in because would have many things to do and many parks are also around the place so you won’t be bored at all. I believe that it is an average safe place to be at and can be the same as many other areas. I’ve been living near Coachella since I was born and all I can say is that is a great place. It also has a great diversity and is also very welcoming to anyone.... Read 152 reviews

Current Resident: Indio Hills has remarkable home living, unique in style and size. The peaceful residents obtain their solitude as they share it with friendly neighbors in various communities. Families come together in public and residential parks celebrating various holidays. Crime and suspicious activity is thankfully scarce, and security is always on watch. One thing may hopefully change, that our deserted deserts would soon be of good use, for recreational parks, volunteering institutions, and of course shopping centers.

Parent: We enrolled our son in Fork Union Military Academy after seeing so many YouTube videos that touted the benefits of the one-subject program and the school. The promise of focus, structure, and accomplishment came through. He passed all his classes in this, his first year, a sophomore at FUMA. We took advantage of their academic success program. There he found continuous support and cheers! They found novel approaches to reach him, took the time to learn about him, and flexed their approaches. I have been concerned in the past about the ability of teachers who are not Black to 'see my son' as an individual. At FUMA, they know him, challenge him to be his best, hold him accountable, and motivate him. I am proud of what he has done this year. As a testament to the place, he is looking forward to going back in the Fall - he's proud that he's earned a promotion in rank and knows he can do even better academically. Amazing....
