The worst possible place to live ever! Ridgecrest, CA! Our sales tax is the highest in three counties, out cost of living matches the trendiest neighborhoods in LA and NYC! We have a military base that's all engineers, and we're an half hour from Death Valley! We get the hottest recorded tempatures on record every summer! We're one of the most earthquake prone locations in the world, we live in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevadas, and off base average income is worst then any other rural location! Our school bus drives are paid less than half of every single school district in the nation! And everyone's a racist piece of shit republican! Yee haw! . Well, I am from here, and I do actual like most things about living here, but it's not going to work out much longer. Seriously our fast food locations upped their prices so high with greedflation that no one is bothering anymore. They put up ''now accepting EBT" that's food stamps, at all of them to try and get people back. It's crazy. There's an adittude in town of ''you all work at the base making 6 figures you can pay double for everything! Plus it costs at least $60 in gas to drive out of town to do anything, so if you want it done in town we're charging $60 extra because fuck you'' and that's always been the case, nothing new, but add inflation and stagnant wages, it's pretty fucking crazy.
