Fresno is a great city because of its central location with easy access go mountain parks and the coast with the Pacific ocean. The climate is wonderful without any severe weather patterns. Great family town with a low crime rate, friendly people, and lots of exciting outdoor activities to enjoy for the whole family.

Fresno is a small city in the San Joaquin Valley, in California. Fresno has beautiful mountain ranges, including Yosemite National Park. Fresno’s air quality is among the worst in the US because of its entrapment surrounded by these mountains. Fresno is 15% safer than some of California’s other cities with its crime rate. Fresno is in the valley, so it’s known for growing crops, mainly grapes and raisins. The weather in Fresno is usually very hot especially in the summer and because of climate change it seems as if heat waves are getting more intense.

Currently, I live in Fresno, California. The city is located in the central valley and is surrounded by farmland. If you move to Fresno, know that the summers are hot, so make sure you find a house or some friends with access to a pool. There are also two water parks in town that the locals go to during the summer.

Fresno is the heart of the Central Valley where you can find many agricultural companies that help produce much of the fruits and vegetables for the state of California. There are also many places one can visit without having to drive far out, with two National Parks at a short distance and many beaches just two hours away. You will also find many wonderful cultural’s that can be learned from.

It is hot here the majority of the year. Not Phoenix-hot, but hot enough to make most people uncomfortable. The city is setup to accommodate the heat (air conditioners everywhere, lots of indoor activities, and pools everywhere!) but it’s also more common than not to have outdoor shopping centers and large parking lots to trek through. Planning is important!
