I've heard that before so checked the BHC City Data (www.bullheadcity.com/government/departments/city-manager/city-data) and criminal arrests are actually down from previous years. According to their data, 2018 and 2019 were almost double the rate recently. Data shows 130 criminal arrests for May 2024. I found another chart on Areavibes.com which shows FBI data from 2022 that says BHC is higher than the national average. Yet a third source, Crimegrade.org, shows BHC lower than the national average for crime and earning a "B" rating. Their data shows the highest crime categories of vandalism, burglary, and drugs respectively. Crimegrade.org doesn't say the dates of their data pool though.

@@loitersquadX I'm from New York city and I agree with you and I give it about 7-10 years to look like trash. Where I lived in Staten Island was beautiful and big $$$$$, now you can't walk the street without a bodyguard at your side.

@@johntretin8991 well what i meant was if alot of the left move there itll become another LA. I am gonna move to bullhead because the housing is cheap. But instead of them having housing. Build structures , a better grid, add more things to bring in money and sustain a future.

Been down by the river? No jobs that pay a living wage either. Californians moved in and helped drive prices up as well. The heat will roast you like a Hatch chili pepper. ☹🌶🔥

@@macmac9744 theres job but they are farrrrr

Agree. Been a long time coming.

For as long as it took them I think it was a money pit

@@candacehawaiipatriot278 Who said anything about the weather?

Unfortunately, that is true right now, Moa8121. However, if new construction continues at its current pace or increases (lower interest rates will help) and people continue to list their homes for sale, the increases should slow along with more housing inventory being available.

BNC ?

We have sams

Thank you for watching!

Thank you for the feedback, Laurie! My web guy says my videos are too long so I sped up the footage. I like the way you think and your comments are duly noted.😁

Hey Sam! I hope you do. As you can probably tell, I love this beautiful river town. Thank you for your comment. 🙂

Thanks for your interest and question, Peter. It doesn't sound like your vision and plan fall into the category I was referring to in the video. I did an interview with the BHC spokesman and my impression is that the City wants people to improve their homes and, if necessary, bring them up to code. The "older" mobiles I was referring to would be considered a blight for the neighborhood, sagging roofs, fascias falling off, broken windows, etc. In fact, I have an older mobile pending sale, a 1969, but it has been well-maintained and is very clean. It has only been used seasonally so it is in very good shape. It's not so much the age as the condition of the home and property. I did not mean to imply the City is out looking for mobiles to condemn. But if an older mobile gets on its radar, i.e., from citizen complaints, and there are building code violations, there is a high probability it will get red-tagged to be brought up to current code standards. And that is where, potentially, the cost of repair and compliance with the Code gets cost prohibitive when compared to the value of the mobile. To clarify, my opinion is the City is enforcing the building codes more consistently today whereas when I moved back here in 2006, according to an investor I spoke with (take that for what it is worth), there was an unwritten policy of grandfathering the older mobiles in for their building code non-compliance. Hope that helps and fear not, I love your idea of fixing up a fun hideaway! Reach out if you want to chat or if I can help in any way.

@@bigriverliving I went down a rabbit hole on your area last night and found that a lot of older mobiles had been scrapped and that there are a lot of lots ready for new ones. To be fair, the one I'm doing in Florida is in a nice park on the water. Another option is a 1950's home but I've heard that the area was mainly mobiles until about 30 years ago. Some friends have warned me about the Meth problem; how is that coming along?

@@TropicTrdr I'm sorry for the delay in responding. I haven't pulled any data on the issue but my personal experience is that I haven't seen much of this behavior recently. I believe there is an effort by the City to make BHC a family-friendly, safe place to live. The improvements the City is making (the street beautification, improvements to Rotary and Community Parks, the Senior Center addition, community events, etc.) indicate to me there is an effort to promote the City's appeal. It would be consistent if there is a focused effort by law enforcement to target that issue specifically but I am not sure.

Hi Laurie! I'd love to get you any info you would like. Please reach out to me and let me know what you would like to see. My contact info is in the description.😀

Thank you, Rachael.

Hello! What kind of job are you looking for?

Anything really, at least something that will allow me to afford a 1 bedroom apartment. Most of my background is in sales and call enter experience. ​@@wendy4173

No jobs and nothing to do and we don't like people from California at all

What do you do for work NOW? WHy can't you do that HERE in BHC??? 75% of the idiots in Bullhead City have NEVER GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL! Any SMART person can EASILY get a job at a casino. So I don't understand your problem? Have you worked? Do you have references? Great, then go get a job! You're prolly too proud to work @ Walmart then, or what?....

There are jobs across the street 95 Hwy in Laughlin Nv.

We have a lot of people from Cali, myself included actually. My family first moved here in 1974 from San Diego County.

@@bigriverliving yeah when I go down to visit my sister it seems like half the people I bump into are from California

Thank you, Baldzilla. Love your handle!
