    This is a great place. I was raised here. But left my husband was military. Came back to finish raising my family. They are grown and gone . It is a medical mecca as we are older now. Big enough but small enough at the same time.

    I dont know how popular of an opinion this will be, but me and my family live in Tech Terrance area. We love it. There tend to be a lot of loud parties at times being that we are so close to Tech, but its got an atmosphere that ive not found in any other neighborhood in Lubbock. I miss the special Christmas activities that were here pre Covid like horse drawn carriage rides, nice celebration near what is now food king and the coffee shop...some ofvthe other shops would have family activities and hot cocoa with smores...so miss that. I love being able to walk a short distance for groceries or restaurants or health care. I just fell in love with the neighborhood and have no plan to move. Raised my daughter here and walking distance to two of her schools til shr went to Lubbock high. ❤

    It really depends where you are moving from whether you'll like it or not. If you are moving from a city or area that had a lot of things, you might not adapt well in Lubbock. The biggest peeve I have about Lubbock is the lack of healthy eats. There's a reason there are pharmacies and doctor offices on every corner.

    i really don't think a healthy lifestyle has much to do with public restaurant options. barbecue in and of itself is not unhealthy if you aren't smothering the meat with sauces. you could eat bbq every day and maintain or lose weight if you stuck to the beef and chicken and just avoided the baked potato casserole and beer. a healthy lifestyle really only happens at home where you have much more control over the food intake and choices.

    I’ve been confused about what people mean by dust and dirt, because on our recent trip to Lubbock I was stunned at how clean everything was. It only just dawned on me that what I thought was dust here in SoCal is really just smog. Everything has a coating of sticky black soot, probably mixed with dust as well. I’d like to see what dust is like without the grime. 😅

    since i'm from california i love the dry climate because i was dreading having to move somewhere affordable that was very humid. i love the summer thunderstorms and crazy lightning we get once in a while, and i love that we get just enough snow to enjoy (1-2 snows in the winter seems normal) without it being burdensome. i didn't grow up in the snow so i love that. i even like the wind. i personally think the only negative about the weather is the dust that gets blown around. also, i have to make a comment about the trash. some of it is because of the wind, but i have to admit that i've never been to a place where people litter more than here. i wish people wouldn't do that.

    Coming here from Houston, I just want to say that I love how we virtually have no traffic. With that being said, yall's driving is questionable. Please do everything faster. Merging onto the highway, changing lanes, and letting someone in or not are all things that need to be done quickly, not slowly. I fear for my life every time I get onto 289 from Quaker and there's 4 cars doing 50mph up the onramp while Chad in his F350 is going 90 in the right lane. Speed doesn't kill, the rapid change in speed does!

    crime is relative to where you are in town. East and southeast have disproportionate rate due to income disparity to the west and southwest side and because of dominant rental vs home ownership. most of the more major crimes are not randomly committed; suspects and victims have some sort of relationship that causes the crime.

    F Lubbock. Worst weather in the country, it's really really boring and isolated and the people are closed-minded and there's nothing to do. And that was before I lived in Rio. Lol. Now..... If those people only knew what they were missing they would never ever ever ever stay there. And then I'm told, well at least it's affordable. I'm paying a third of what I'm paid when I live there and I'm having the time of my life and I can afford to eat out for just about every meal and I have personal chef and someone who cleans for me and I can get my massages twice a week and the most beautiful women on the planet for $2,500 a month
