Been living here since I was 4 years old and now i've just turned 25 as i'm typing this. In my entire experience, this city is mostly calm nature and relaxing. But honestly.. if you're a outgoing person, this city really isn't for you. There aren't lots of fun activities to do except visiting wineries, bars in Old Town, and Pachanga Casino, etc. Our local Promenade mall stores are closing down. Speaking of that, there aren't really many diverse of jobs.. Unless you're into the medical, manufacture, and restaurant field.
As others have said, traffic can be a nightmare. Barely seen any homelessness.. and it's usually the same peeps too. I usually jog around the city and never felt threatened. This city is mostly conservative. Yet as a Latino, it doesn't really bother me as much. Overall, nice city if you have a family. If you're a young outgoing person, I recommend looking somewhere else. And oh yea.. house prices here are DAM EXPESNIVE AND I STILL LIVE WITH MY MOMMY AND DADDY!

I have lived in Temecula for 32 years. I moved from a small beach town in Orange County and I was looking for a more affordable place to live that still had a small town feeling to it. I love Temecula for so many reasons. The weather is close to perfect most of the year even though it gets hot in August, this beach girl can take it. There are tons of wineries and restaurants to choose from. We have a happening night life with live music. You can be at the beach or mountains within a 30 minute drive. We have incredible schools as well. This is a great place to raise kids!
Temecula has its pros and cons. It is a suburban town at a convenient distance from Los Angeles as well as San Diego. Temecula is a safe location for the most part. The schools are average, some schools that really stand out though are Vista Murrieta High School and Great Oak High School. Most of the schools in this school district aside from the aforementioned neglect their fine arts department unfortunately but the teachers are really good! Because Temecula is in Riverside County, most residents are right wing politically speaking, which is something that differs me from them. I am more left-leaning politically so this is something I found uncomfortable at moments.
