Chances are, if you live in California and you've driven on the 99, you have driven right through it. Turlock is an interesting town to say the least. Mostly, you'll see new families or retired couples, which indirectly creates a lack of crime. It's mostly suburbs with neighbors who are involved/concerned about the safety of others. For teens, there isn't a lot to do, besides going to In-N-Out or attending the new Bowling alley. The schools offer, Public, Private and charter. Overall, Turlock is a great town to settle down. I grew up there and my only complaint was the lack of activities when you are between ages 14-21. I would recommend to anyone giving it a shot or at least a visit. So next time you are on 99, and you see Turlock, pull off and grab a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants offered. Or just In-N-Out.
What I like about Turlock is that it is overall a quiet town, with friendly neighbors. Kids can run around and play games, and there are parks scattered around so that they can play on. There are enough stores, restaurants, markets, and houses for everyone to get by, and everyone can afford to get what they need.
The only thing I would change about Turlock is that I would love if there were a bit more diversity.

I love Turlock. It’s a very nice, quiet town to live in. I moved there from Merced when I was six years old, and I’m now twenty-five years old. After living there for almost twenty years, I can definitely say it’s a great city to grow up in. The people are nice, there’s good food all throughout the town, there’s great shopping, and it’s centrally located to the larger cities like Modesto. It’s definitely a city I could see myself living in for a long time, and it’s a great place to raise a family in. I even had great experiences attending the school there, and there’s a great university in town, too.
