Best things about Simi Valley that nobody talks about
As a 3-year resident, here are some things about Simi Valley that don't make it into the guides:
1. The local music scene is really vibrant
2. The library system is phenomenal
3. Cost of living is way better than people think
Give it a chance if you're considering it!

Don't sleep on Riverside. It's up and coming and still affordable.

For families, I'd recommend looking at Pine Grove. Schools are rated well and it's quiet.

Great post! One thing I'd mention is the west side tends to be more affordable. Makes a big difference.

I'd add that the parks here are amazing for families. Otherwise spot on!

Check out the Highland Park area. Way more affordable and still close to everything.

Coming from Miami, the cost of living difference is noticeable. Groceries and gas are slightly more expensive but housing makes up for it.
