Omg its scary how i used to live on sandy drive and few years later its been a bunch of scary shootings in that area or robberys ..so glad i got out off that area
Amanda Witkowski
That area has always been ghetto.
it really hasn’t.

After the 94 earthquake is when it started getting bad!!!

I’m 38 I’ve lived in scv since I was 5 it has always been sketchy.
David Snelling… Good thing you’re getting outa there!! Geeez
Yeah they’ve had a lot of breakins in the last 18 months and that’s because they fired the office people that seemed to be doing a good job, And then they hired all new people that let in people that wouldn’t been able to get in the year before. Because they lowered the amount you make and the credit scores just to fill vacant apartments.. I myself haven’t had any problems. But I’m still moving this week. :)
That’s why I live in Val Verde lol
That area used to be decent when I lived at river ranch about 13 years ago but it has turned out to be a pocket of ghetto in the SCV
I lived in river ranch 13 years ago. .. it was never decent
Normally where the rent is cheap that’s where you’ll find all the ghetto ppl. Sad but true
Yeah…I recall a fatal shooting outside of a friend’s apartment on Jake’s Way, and that was probably 15 years ago.
I always read about Jakes Way and it’s never good news.

Jesse Celinn Eden
It’s been bad news over there since the 1990’s
Kayla Soles right by our old apt
It’s a cheap area to live in. At least compared to the rest of SCV. However, there’s a million apartments clumped together there. Anywhere that there’s a large amount of people, problems will arise.
Juan Ramirez
Got to love the SCV projects …good thing I moved from Chelsea way a month ago..don’t miss the cops or trash….
not surprised it’s over by Jake’s Way.. always seems like something is always happening right over there.
They let all them damn hoodlums in the SCV. I’ve lived here 15 years and its just gotten worse. Making Palmdale look not so bad now.

Can I move in? Lol

I am not surprised and it is the Getto of SVC mostly all Drug Dealers and Punks.
This was not a drug deal.
Nor did it involve a “punk”. This was somebodies son.
Safia hung around that area I did not like her to ne there most of the time there are like 4-5 police hanging around and from the kids I knew who lived there there’s a shooting or stabbing several times a week. Not always picked up by the news its a very bad area Valisa I was not comfortable when Safia went there always afraid that something like this would happen.
I understand, but this incident had nothing to go with the area it happened in.
Damn the chick that shot the two dudes was my neighbor till I moved out couple months ago
Brittany Singleton
Glad I live in Compton
This can happen anywhere!
They need to break down all these apartments and make it a big dog park. Dogs need it.

Back then there was no section 8 or Palmdale/Compton immigrants.
Ain’t that the truth.
Plus alot of our car club members lived there

And a another issue at the jakes way projects, they need to have a sheriffs station right there. But then again a large fence would be better.

People don’t pass judgement. Mentally girl who lost her mom as a young girl. And has grown up with minimal direction. Just lost it! I know them quite well.
Her mom was my aunt. I’ve been afraid to read these comments.I know the internet can be so harsh
Jessica was a beautiful loving girl and no one saw this coming. She was troubled but she’d always call me and say hi grandma I hope you are ok. Even though I wasn’t her grandma by blood she loved my family. I’m at a loss for words that the unimaginable has happened. Johnny and Sonny did not deserve this. May Johnny RIP and may Sonny have strength to get thru this all because Maddie really needs him now. Jessica awoke Maddie at 5am told her to get dressed and brush her teeth and go outside and wait for her. Placed headphones on her and went on a rampage. She loved Maddie so much. I’m just so grateful she spared my grand baby. No one deserved this.

I am in favor of gentrification
God SCV seems to be seeing a steady rise in this crap
I noticed it started to change once section 8 was accepted in certain places.
Thanks everyone for the kind (sic) comments about my neighborhood. Just keep this mind. When SFV was “new” it was just like SCV. It’s coming here too. To Valencia too. So quit being so high and mighty. There are more nice, friendly, law abiding citizens that live here in CC than not. Get over yourselves.
It all went downhill after they turned that area into section 8
Agree…
totally agree!!!!
Let’s see. The guy who killed his baby lived in Newhall. Most idiot drivers come from Valencia. The guy who had the standoff and caused the huge disturbace for his neighbors lived in Newhall. Most crimes are in Valencia/Saugus/Newhall. Not Canyon Country or Jakes Way.
Not sure where you’re receiving your data, but if you did a little research on local crimes or speak to any local police/sheriffs dept. employees, you would find that most of the crime in this valley occurs in your beloved cc. Not sure why you’re so defensive, everyone knows jakes way is a dump.
Stay classy jakes way
I’m not being sarcastic but no Canyon Country is not all bad this is true but Jake’s Way on the another hand…DEFINITELY is no good! I have family & friends in the sheriff’s dept. & they themselves say how bad Jake’s Way is..not sure where you’re getting your information, Linda.
Mamm.. Yes crime is happening all of Santa Clarita now . but you are wrong Jake’s way has been a huge problem tons of crime including murders since I left that area in 96
It’s getting as bad as the AV.
People say this can happen anywhere that is very true but it happens all the time on Jake’s way if its not one thing its another I used to live there it was a scary place glad I moved
I was planning to move back to Newhall but not anymore…my favorite city had gone to ruin :'(
you’re better off in Valencia
Newhall you’re favorite city ?! You need to get out more often!
Your better off in Canada
I live there! I can’t go to work in the morning I was late

att: deceive O’Neal this is on your hands … You and your little wannabe gang unit just sit around … Harassing the wrong people …or sentencing all da wrong people to do life in jail….Santa Clarita sheriffs are a joke out tax dollars spent for nothing … How much more blood has to be shed until the community realizes it!!!! Little man from da whites cyn area ….
Geeze! I’ve lived here since 1966. This has been and still is one of the top ten cities of its size in the country! Management in that apt complex should be put on notice if they aren’t running a safe complex. There are some bad spots, I’ll agree. One use to be north oaks, behind Taco Bell. Another is old Newhall by hart high. Another down town newhall has its hot spots. But, Hadley canyon use to be a place you wouldn’t want to be after dark. Castiac has had its problems.But remember Valencia has too. In fifty years here, I’ve seen crime everywhere but the numbers are low compared to other cities. I think some blame is on the parents and the “time out” discipline. The other is Obama and the long slow economy recovery and open borders. But nothing says you can’t move to San Fernando!
How the Fuxx does Obama have anything to do with your neighborhoods? Get off your lazy and scary ass stop talking about it and do something about it. Duh
Who was it!?

Nicole Fausett, people are ignorant, arrogant and judgemental and react before they know anything. People, like the lady said, it had nothing to do with drugs or the geographics.

Time to move out of scv
This incident had nothing to do with the area…..This could of happened anywhere…It was a dispute between 3 family members. Wasn’t a Drug Deal gone bad…Wasn’t Gang Related….Don’t be so quick to assume…
Ruby Rivas
That’s where I live Silvia Echeverria
they keep building and that means the more people that live here the more crime you will have it is simple math cant wait to be able to move to AZ permanatly Canyon country is the second worse next to newhall in santa clarita
Thank you to those whose understood where I was coming from…… Sophia we are fine a bit speechless but we are safe thanks for asking ❤️
I’ve been afraid to read these comments
They really suck.
I am sorry for the loss of this young man and the families of all involved. People can be very cruel and judgemental, it says more about them than the families involved. These things have happened in Valencia and Stevensons Ranch also. The location of this does not dimish the pain that the families are going through.
These were my cousins. They were not drug addicts or bad people!! She had alot of problems in her mind.
People don’t seem to understand that our family is devastated.
