Considering a move to Fort Bragg. I'm hoping I could transfer my skills as a disability advocate over there and write and play music for fun in my spare time. My parents would still be relatively nearby, in Cloverdale. The most rural place I've lived is Arcata.

How did you adjust to the remoteness? Have you been able to find a friendly community/people? I know Fort Bragg is small and quiet, that's part of the appeal to me.

Is there anywhere around Fort Bragg you can surf fish for leopard shark?

I’ll be camping and surf fishing in spring.

I'm considering a move to the Fort Bragg/Mendocino area, possibly to live long term. Fort Bragg sounded great,  slower paced, surrounded by nature, somewhat affordable…but those crime stats. 

What's your experience with safety in FB? Is crime widespread, or more in certain areas? Would a woman feel safe walking alone?

Also, general question - do you think an east asian person would feel comfortable in the area?

Any advice appreciated!

Edit : I just realized this is the wrong subreddit I apologize I think I’m gonna leave it open in the off chance someone had connection

title; I'm from Nola, and I am just curious as to what the culture of this institution was like as obviously both members of the recent attacks were positioned there

The weather forecast says it will be raining a lot from Sat - Mon. How accurate is it? It takes about 4 hours for me to drive over there. Worried about flooding/wind...

I was planning to see the holiday lights at the botanical garden, but wasn't sure how severe the rain will be.

What do y'all think? Am I going to be stuck indoors the majority of the time?

hi! i have a trip coming up to fort Bragg this weekend and am wondering if i should cancel due to the tsunami and earthquake???

Hey all, My wife and I are coming to stay in FB this weekend. Looking for any and all recommendations! I am a photographer and interested in all the hidden gems your community has to offer! Any good recs? Must see places? Hole in the walls? Locals only type things?

FYI I don’t drink and my wife is pregnant!

Thanks for any help!

Hi! I’m looking to buy some second hand 14k+ gold jewelry but I’m not finding a lot on Facebook Marketplace. Is there another website you’d recommend or a well priced shop?

Where to stay while making my way to Trees of Mystery? Recommendations for clean and safe hotels that won’t cost me an arm and a leg.

I want to know if anyone has an opinion about the SOCOM Care Coalition/Warrior Care program and if they think they are doing a good job. My experience hasn’t been good and I’m trying to find out if it’s me or if it’s them

Why is it so fucking hard to make friends here? It’s like people only wanna talk to me when they need something. Maybe it’s just me though. I just got here a month ago but it already feels like my peers don’t like me or something.

Does anyone of a free/inexpensive wedding location in Fort Bragg? My brother decided to get married in a month during a family reunion we have planned there. The courthouse is in Ukiah and hour away, I figure getting married near the beach may be more fun.

As with most things there are pros and cons. Love the timber but also want an earthquake and flood safe bridge. Thoughts?

Curious what everyone's favorite spot is along the coast and if you have a pic to share showcasing the magic of it.

Looking over the last few months news headlines shows several crimes where unregistered guns were either used or later confiscated. Has this trend been going on for awhile or is this a recent occurrence? Do you feel it these are just a few people finally getting caught or a more pervasive part of the community?

Tried both the campground and grocery store to no avail. Any ideas?

I’m staying at FB and was wondering if there is a good spot for star gazing around FB. Thanks

I am going to be visiting next month and would really like to check out some great restaurants! I’m not picky but looking for a good burger place, pizza parlor, and of course fish and chips and clam chowder! Any help is appreciated!

Title says it. I've been invited to the nine month program at Krenov and plan to stay from July '22 to July '23. Looking for housing online and the options seem to be sparse. If anyone has leads please let me know!

I'm planning to visit fort Bragg end of this month fort my birthday. I'll be visiting with one friend. Was wondering what restaurants I should try?

I'm not too picky, but a variety would be good, such as American, seafood, Asian/fusion.
