my sister moved there in 2019 from Oakland for college and she enjoys it- went to go visit her this summer and it was so hot I couldnt sleep the first two nights at her apt..
My father was born and raised in Fullerton and I lived there on and off as a child and young person. It was a wonderful place to grow up in in the 60's and 70's.
I grew up in Fullerton. Problem was, Fullerton grew up around me. Now, it’s hard to find a parking space, due to the fact that the kids never leave home!
Lived in Fullerton Ca. From 1959 to 1989. I grew up on Jacaranda pl. and Ford ave. Also the Fullerton Boys Club. I went to Ford ave. Grammar school, Wiltshire junior high school, Fullerton high school and Fullerton J.C.. it was a wonderful place to grow up.
Lived across from Fullerton High. on Harvard which now does not exist. Graduated from High School in 1960. My family the Townsends owned the malt shop building and raised in the old house next to it. We took over the malt shop and called it Kenny's after my dad. State took it over after 1960 and tore it all down. Live in Simi Valley, CA and have not seen Fullerton in many years. Wish they had pictures. My name is Jo Leos.
I lived in Fullerton for 17 years. I went to both the College and University. I have a ton of memories and still even dream about certain areas a LOT. It's still the city I've most dated in. I never knew the city existed until we moved there. Btw, Chapman Ave. is kind of a demarcation line, because things feel a lot different north and south of here. It's been 10 years since I've been there. But I will always love it no matter what. 10:40 My drives to L.A. up the 5 freeway grew to at least 75-80 minutes from the 45 minutes or so in the 90s. And this was 15+ years ago since I last made that drive.
I think you guys should do a feature video on whittier. We have homes that have sold way above the $4M in the friendly hills area but also other neighborhoods as well. Extremely diverse, one of the few cities that has every type of community.
My ex-wife is from Fullerton - the judge awarded her EVERYTHING that she demanded. I grew up in Tustin, but now I hate Fullerton! Moving to Texas in August.
That is what I was going to say. It depends on what you want to major in. I got into SDSU, but decided to go to CSUN for undergrad and then, to CSUF for grad school.
@@shonakotha Hi! We only do sales, but you might want to check with Cal State Fullerton to see if they can help you. American universities are usually pretty helpful when it comes to finding housing for international students. You might want to check out this CSFU resource: extension.fullerton.edu/international/students/housing/ Also, in our opinion hotpads.com/ is the best website for rentals. Best of luck in your search, and let us know if you have any other questions!
Fullerton is my hometown. Lived there for 30 years. There ain't no place you can take me there that I haven't already been. Now live in Dallas and I'm not going back.
Also I don’t know why all these yuppies like these over priced restaurants that are crowded they aren’t even good. What happened to good old Sizzlers and Cocos?
Wow, you guys got so much wrong, and missed so much. I don’t even know where to begin. Oh yea…the park you have in the background is in Brea not Fullerton. Music wise, how did you miss the home of Fender guitars?! The commute to LA can take up to two hours it may be close as the bird flies but not as the car drives. The big melting pot you’re talking about is completely segregated. On the other side of the tracks downtown you have Hispanics up on the hill in sunny hills you have Asian and downtown Fullerton is a mix of white and Hispanic. And, fun fact. Coyote Hills golf course is actually situated on a chemical waste site. Fullerton was originally supposed to be a toxic waste site. Anaheim and the other surrounding cities did not want a toxic waste site near their cities so they decided to pull their money together and start Cal State Fullerton university. Once the three admissions buildings were put in they could no longer put a medical waste site there. Got a love history right?
Great place to live and raise kids IF you are white , maybe Asian. Not a lot of Hispanic bias but Cops have a bad bad rep when dealing with Blacks , drive up a beat up car or look "artsy" you will get bothered by Cops for no reason. Remember the KKK had a huge foothold in Anaheim and Fullerton in the 20's-30's.Cops routinely hassled Hippies in the 60's and the 70's. Now that pot is legal in CA maybe some of that is diminished. But they did murder a homeless guy on camera about a decade ago - beat the poor guy to death, lawsuit, etc... Most public schools are far better than what you find in Downey, and LA County that borders OC. As for "Heat" someone who lived decades in Fullerton -- 90% of the time there is nice summer breeze around 3pm.IF YOU LIKE HORSES AND ARE RICH -- they have a very sweet small Equestrian area in Sunny Hills -- houses with over an acre with trails and even a cute little lake. When I was in Fullerton these houses were 500K-750k now they are well over 1.75 million but a real diamond in the rough. A very "coiffed" Equestrian area. East Fullerton near Placentia is mostly tract homes built from the 60's-70's. Kind of boring -- but safe.If I were buying in Fullerton today I'd draw a circle one or two miles around with the old Fullerton College as the center. As long as you get these older places earthquake bolted you may find a Craftsman or very cool late 20's to mid 50's construction place with loads of character on a sweet street with full size trees -- really nice shade with 'global warming' rearing it's ugly head. There is also another very exclusive expensive area other than Sunny Hills. THE SKYLINE DRIVE area has homes on the hills - some have views all the way to Catalina. Other than Orange Fullerton is about as good as you can get in non coastal (affordable) OC.
Pros absolutely none Cons its in california enough said Overpriced craphole Own a 3 bed 3 bath home in forney tx built 2 years ago big yard 310 thousand Same house in orange county 800 thousand plus Ridiculous

I went to CSUF for grad school in the 90’s. My aunt was the Secretary to the President.
That's cool! CSUF has changed so much since the 90s! Crazy how much all of OC has changed!
Grew up in Fullerton in the 60's and 70's on Gilbert Avenue. Went to Buena Park High School. Been in Plano, Texas for the last 30 years.

Yes, north of Chapman Ave is best part of Fullerton. Closer to orangethorpe and south to Anaheim can be rough. There are tons of trails in Fullerton.
Thank you for reviewing Fullerton Love this town!
Fullerton is rad!
Fullerton seems like such a beautiful place to live
depends if u live north of DTF or south 😂

Yay Fullerton! where I grew up in the 60s
My ex-wife is from Fullerton - the judge awarded her EVERYTHING that she demanded. I grew up in Tustin, but now I hate Fullerton! Moving to Texas in August.
Which one would you recommend: CSU Fullerton or SDSU?
I'm guessing it would depend on your major? It's such a persona decision. Both are great schools :)

Con of living in Fullerton: the overwhelming amount of modified car exhausts/mufflers here.
Don’t forget the sound systems and stickers.
Lol Fullerton having safer streets that are smaller and more pleasant is a negative.

I went to FJC before transferring to CSU Pomona (like it matters anyways) back in the day, and Fullerton is ghetto now compared to before.
Pros absolutely none

Overpriced craphole
Own a 3 bed 3 bath home in forney tx built 2 years ago big yard 310 thousand
Same house in orange county 800 thousand plus
Ridiculous
Don’t live in downtown Fullerton it’s so ghetto just as ghetto as Anaheim. Lol!
Ppl in Orange County don’t know what ghetto is. You have to leave Orange County to get to true ghetto
