    "Yes, within walking distance, however, not well street lighted. More lightning on very long and dark streets. Sidewalks would be an improvement, one doesn’t have to walk in the streets or along the highway in town."

    "The yucca valley area is a great place to live if you don’t mind wide open spaces and driving to conveniences. If you need convenience, you can live closer to town center, but it is unsafe and there is a lot of theft, drugs and other crimes."
