    Do people knock on your door trying to set up security cameras?

    I just had some strange group of men (although only one really did the talking) knock on our door trying to say some cops were out cause our neighbors are playing robbers and whatnot and I think he was trying to sell a service? Or maybe a camera? He wasn't really very clear but he tried to come in the home to show how the set up would be but I was like no, it's not happening tonight. They plan to return tomorrow and I just need to know if anyone's ever interacted with something similar and how guarded should we be?

    Grace Boxing Gym

    Has anyone tried out Grace Boxing? I’m interested in getting into a MMA or Boxing but I don’t want to pay some insane amount.

    One school I looked into was almost $200 a month and that’s just ridiculous for a couple hours 4 days a week.

    Good Schools?

    Looking to purchase a home and Palmdale fits our budget but I have yet to make the jump because of the school ratings are absolutely horrible no matter the side of the freeway you are on.

    For those that live there with children attending can you please give any advice on the schools and what your thoughts are and what the good schools you would recommend?

    I have a 12 (7th) and 7 (2nd) graders

    Where to learn about Zoning and Land Use for buying land in Palmdale?

    I have already downloaded and viewed zoning maps and land use maps from the City Of Palmdale website. But is there any other way to make sure what you can do in the land?
    I'm a foreigner and living in a third world poor country atm. I plan to move to Palmdale and probably live there for the rest of my life.
    And the reason I choose palmdale is that it is cheaper than LA. But I also LOVE it. The deserty theme and the lack of tall buildings and lower density of people is what I dig. It looks like a peaceful quiet place.

    I've already started checking lands on Redfin website. Is there any other sites worth taking a look? I cannot afford a full house. So I plan to buy a piece of empty land first and then build from there.

    What I'm looking for is multi-use lands where I can both live and maybe open a small retail shop or rent a business so I can have a liveable passive income before i can apply for a job.

    Thank you all!

    MISSING PERSON IN PALMDALE! GERARDO ARAIZA!

    Hi everyone, a relative of mine was last seen on October 8th 2024. His name is Gerardo "Jerry" Araiza. He is 21 years old, about 5'8, 170 lbs, and of hispanic origin. He has long brown frizzy hair, and some facial hair. I am not entirely sure if he left by himself, but we think he did by foot. He was last seen in a grey hoodie and jeans. I inserted a few pictures of him. Any information about his whereabouts would be greatly appreciated!

    Last known picture of Gerardo Araiza (at work).

    How safe is the hiking trail behind Alta Dena to shoot?

    I want to go shooting in the hiking trail behind Alta Dena and I’m not sure if I’m going to get the cops called on us. I’ve seen shotgun shells and bullets scattered around the area but if other people have done it recently please let me know

    Update: totally did it back there in the hiking trail. Encountered zero problems ;D

    How to get into Northrup / Lockheed Martin

    Question, why I keep rejected from these two companies? For the past 3-4 years I’ve applied over 50 applications and all of them get rejected, not even interview. I have experience as an area manager at Amazon for 3 years, I worked in the City for over year and have a bachelor degree. Many of the jobs I’ve seen matches my experience. I have met people randomly who work there but they only say “just apply” haha. Anyone knows the secret to get at least an interview or something? I couldn’t get hold of any recruiter. I’m also a U.S. citizen but I don’t have security clearance

    Best Place for Piano/Voice Lessons?

    As the question suggests, I am enquiring about the best place in the AV to receive lessons/instruction for Piano and voice. I have tried to research myself and found multiple places with good reviews so I am hoping for some advice from people who either, have first-hand accounts and experiences, or have some information relevant to my question. I think it is worth mentioning that I am in my early 20's so programs/schools geared solely towards children would not be suited for me. Thank you in advance to everyone who responds to this post.
