    • The way the community still has hope that one day the city will get better by improving the poverty rate encourage each individual to give their best to better themselves.
  • If rental inflation doesn’t get the better of you while you’re still working, it most definitely will once you retire and rely on a fixed income.

    • My dad built a new house here in Wasco in 1928 and it is still there. Another thing that I like about Hemet is how supportive the people are with others, however, not all people support each other.
