Bear sighting on my street. In running springs. Going through all the trash. Fishing must not be that good in Deep Creek...

Charlotte I hear ya!
It was the rude, drunk tourists and the rising crime rate that got me.
I sold my house in Big Bear in 2021 when the market was red hot and moved to Running Springs.
I absolutely LOVE it here. No crime whatsoever and no tourists!
Same climate (I love the four seasons) and everyone is friendly, but if I HAVE to get down the hill it's a quick 15 minute drive.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO:

Curious, Charlotte, what part of the country you moved to?

...another contrails believer bites the dust.

[used generators can be had for less than the lost meat]

But honestly, best wishes on finding paradise Charlotte.

I sold my house in Big Bear because of all the jet spraying. I couldn't even go outside anymore without getting a headache. The continual power outages were becoming absolutely ridiculous after losing about $500 of meat in the freezer. What a hell hole my precious Big Bear has become. I was raised here in the '80s.
