    "It's the DESERT! For real. No exaggeration. The town seems clean and safe. It's not much more than a truck & Frieght Train stop. Rather empty. Several hotels a gas stations, a Denny's, McDonald's one grocery store. Hot during the day. Strong winds by afternoon every day. Pleasant at night. Not far from Lancaster and Palmdale where there is more to do. Beautiful wide open horizons, but not even many cactus here. Mostly dust. "
