I’m glad you feel so obligated to tell us how you are or were such a big part of this community but my family was here even before you. I have lived on the west side all of my entire life. You can chuckle all you want but we seem to do just fine over here on the “West ” side!
Because most of you are rich or well off on the “Westside” lol
I’m neither Jacob Maxwell but I have lived here for a very long time. I’m far from rich but my hometown means alot to me and I hate to see people talk bad about it, especially if they don’t live in this unincorporated part of town .
Weeds!!!!!!
Yet, Mr. Manzer, you forget that the areas of Stevenson Ranch and West Ranch are amongst some of the richest enclaves in the area and even the county. To annex them would bring more tax dollars and funding to the City of Santa Clarita that we otherwise are ignoring and missing out upon. It’s nice that you claim to know the area west of the freeway, but not so nice that you have no clue. The Valencia Marketplace might have Valencia in the name, but those tax dollars go straight to the county… or do you not know the west side as well as you claim to? I’d believe so with this uninformed opinion piece…
And yes, The Valencia Market Place is County Tax Dollars, not the City… One of the possibilities should the West Side be forced to Annex into the city (cough cough hack!) The City, would have had to pay “alimony” for The Market Place to the County for 20 years.
Nobody can “force” the west side to annex into the city of Santa Clarita; only the residents of the west side can do that.
You sir, are a boss.
(That was a compliment invade someone misinterprets that)
Hahaha, we here over on the east side get a kick out the squabbling going on here. You all should realize the real “old” money is tucked away in canyon country. It’s called Sand Canyon. Quietly rich as opposed to “wanna be rich “on the west side of town. Hummmm, just saying!?
West side, yes I wondered why some of your neighbors in Stevenson Ranch ended up at the food stamp offices of Lanark St, Van Nuys instead of the office at Camp Plenty.
The vote was on the official ballot in November 2009, it was not a Town Council or City Council vote. It was an Advisory Vote to let the County Supervisor know the wishes on governance by the majority of the people to be affected.
So while you may know a lot about hay and horses back before running water etc. You may not know every little thing, about every little thing. Then again, no one would expect you to, which of why you should accept when something is pointed out to you.
If I remember correctly, L.A. County wasn’t going to let the City of Santa Clarita take over the west side of the freeway (Stevenson Ranch and Valencia) because of Magic Mountain. They used the 5 freeway as the boundary line. Since M.M.(Valencia) is such a big tax dollar generator, the County would never let it go to the City of Santa Clarita.
That was true, but the city crossed the freeway several years ago.
Weeds was a dope show! (No pun intended haha) Stop being a hater :)
Sorry but there are drug addicts and drug dealers in the north, south, West , and east… wake up and smell the weed!!!!!! =)))
Hell its still Newhall and Saugus south of Lyons was the place up on snob hill. How’s those apples
Wow, rude! I’ve been in this area for most of my life (I’m over 50). I’ve seen most of the valley develop. I remember when most of what we see today was just open fields and rolling hills. Every area has developed. Why slam the west side? There are many people living on the west side contributing to the success of the entire Santa Clarita Valley. Stop being rude!
How do they contribute by buying their clothes at the mall. Santa Clarita was a much better place to live when there was only 3 high schools hart, Saugus, and canyon. With all this home building and squeezing as many houses as you can into a small place is making it ridiculous for people to do anything with in Santa Clarita especially driving. You see construction I see destruction. If you’re over 50 and you lived here for most of your life as you say let’s call it 40 years. Then you should fully understand how people made numerous mistakes causing this overpopulated mess we currently live in. This place has it evolved into a wonderful place for rich people to retire young people have no room to survive in Santa Clarita whatsoever without significant help from mommy and daddy which I find ridiculous without young people you have no community young people are the ones that are going to be running this show once the people that made all these mistakes are no longer with us. At least all the people that are making these mistakes will have banked enough cash to ensure their children live comfortably after they pass. Sometimes we create stronger people when we cut that cord
I’m just glad all of us have pride in our neighborhoods. Now just BE neighborly, Please.
Little houses on the hillside, little houses made of ticky tacky. Little houses on the hillside and they all look just the same????
So many trolls all over.
We’ve lived here for 50 years. This valley has really changed. It was a population of 33,000, and we paid 23,500$s for our house.still in it. I’ve watched it change and I can honestly say I’m proud of every square mile of development. Thanks to the many people that supervised its growth, our retirement is very secure. Our home has appreciated over20xs it original cost in spite of going through 2 earthquakes. Life in Santa Clarita is good and we’re thankful.?
Awesome town huh, from the above posts why are most of Santa Clarita Valley residents so insecure?
I’m just thankful I live in Santa Clarita. With all the chaos going on in the world, thank you God for sticking me here.
Does this “sctv” page even read what what they post? Or just ket everyone post on their page??
This has to be one of the dumbest commentaries I’ve read. If you prefer to hate on any part of this community then simply MOVE.
Straight outa Stevenson’s Ranch
Are some crazy people paying triple
From a game called yuppies with attitudes
Little houses little houses little houses on the hillside
Manifest destiny! Bring em in, I say!
