I love it. My family moved from Michigan to Pomona in 1958. I was youngest out of 6 kids , and I was only a 3 month old baby . We lived in the neighborhood behind Ganesha HS. For about 5yrs. Moved , came back 2 yrs later, and moved to Westmont, a block away from elementary school. So many fond memories. I left in 1972 , but my family stayed for 8/10 more yrs. They moved to the high desert. I'm saddened to hear of what it's become. It gets bad reviews. I wanted to move back , but was told not to. Violence, drugs , neighborhoods have changed , and outrageous prices for houses. Heard that General Dynamics was totally gone. Why? Unfortunate. Hope it can make a comeback. Thank you for making this video. 😊

There is no "Garvey" ave in Pomona! You must be thinking of El Monte. In Pomona we have Garey. You also forgot Arrow and Foothill blvd. Which run east to west. Also Towne Ave. and Indian Hill blvd. which run north and south.

Rio Rancho and Lone Ridge are on the South West end of Pomona which is called Phillips Ranch. The the thumbnail for the video that shows monument sign indicating "Pomona" on it was taken on Rio Ranch Road. The Walmart is there. However, Montclair plaza is on the North East end of Pomona, which is not close to Phillips Ranch. However, Montclair Plaza is the closet Mall of its kind in the area. It is one of the remaining in door malls anchored by Department stores. Newer malls in the Southland tend to be outdoor strip center style malls. Thanks for watching.

[@southlandchannel]

Pomona has some challenges, but it also has a lot of positive traits. The center has several organizations that help homeless people, which can bring in a lot of problems other cities don't endure by simply running off homeless individuals. As Pomona is a city that makes an effort to help the drug addicted and mentally ill living on the streets its hard to fault them for the problems that stem from it. I do, however, think they could do a better job controlling street vendors. While I love a street tacos, have street vendors setup all over the city seems unfair to the local businesses and detracts from the city esthetics. Thanks for watching, SC

The problem is the city council and the leadership of Pomona. A lot of businesses have left and have moved on because our city regulations towards businesses. It’s a poorly run city and will continue to be unfortunately until residents really care and want change. It’s a shame I love my city. Pomona city and police also were sued because they discarded homeless peoples property when arresting them and were forced to put a homeless shelter in the city as a resolution to the case so its full of homeless now. Other surrounding cities police depts dump homeless in Pomona too so it’s full of trash and drugs. Many of us have lived here our whole lives and hope for things to get better it’s really sad.

"Agricultural town turned city"...turned ghetto!

[@southlandchannel]

True there are portions of Pomona that are quite rough. They have a few operations that feed and house homeless people unlike most of the cities around them. Making that effort has its drawbacks. Homeless people bring drug addictions, which brings prostitution. Additionally, the Government seems to be looser about things like street vendors. Which can diminish the appearance of things. I did feel the the reports from the police department and city government which I read seemed to be written by people who care. Additionally, I have found there is a lot of love for Pomona out there. Unlike any other city we have profiled, people love Pomona. Thanks for watching. We appreciate the support and feedback.

Pomona is a great city. And on Holt Blvd. a number of things can be found that aren't in neighboring cities, like homeless people, drug addiction, and prostitution.

I apologize for my original comment. It's been nagging at me ever since I made it this afternoon and I did go ahead and delete it. It was not cool. I did not realize that it was your first video, and it just happens to be a somewhat touchy subject for me personally as it is my hometown and I have not been able to get back there for way too long. I miss it. My comment was a reflection of these things, not constructive in any way having to do with production or content. In all it is in excellent first video. The narration was a bit flat. I would make suggestions as to where to drive if you decide to make a second attempt specifically in Pomona, but any suggestions I might make w o u l d be extremely biased by my fondness and nostalgia for the area. I do very much applaud your quickness in responding to comments, and how seemingly well you handle criticism especially from dumb KZbinrs like me. Good luck to you.

[@southlandchannel]

No need to apologize, we appreciate the feedback as it helps us to improve. I am especially frustrated with some of the errors such as getting the street name incorrect. For some reason Garvey Ave out near El Monte stuck in my head and we did not catch it and a couple of other miss steps. I too am fond of Pomona and wanted to present it in fair light not focusing on some of the negatives of other videos, but not acting like the city doesn't have some challenges. We actually captured a few hours of video of Pomona over several weeks, but getting the filming to an acceptable quality was harder than the narration, which is clearly very weak. Filming through a windshield is apparent subject to time of day, direction of travel, and can change as you are doing it. After weeks of struggling with this we finally decided to publish something so we could start to learn from the work we put it. This resulted in the errors that we missed. We repeated some of the errors and made some new ones with our Irvine video. But I think we got a little closer to the mark with our Bell Gardens video. We are hoping our next City Profiles video will be a step up from all of the previous with a better camera and filming strategy as well as better attention to detail. Thank you again for the feedback, the apology which was not needed, the encouragement, which is appreciated, and for simply watching. Someday we will redo the Pomona video correctly, but we are going to get some more experience and do it right next time. The Southland Channel

3rd world Pomona. Where the devil himself just loves to lurk

[@southlandchannel]

I don't think Pomona is all that bad. It has some challenges, but the devil lurks everywhere he just wears different clothes in different neighborhoods. What I have noticed is that Pomona has a lot of Angels. There are real efforts in Pomona to help homeless people. I also noticed having don't several City Profile videos now, that the report from Pomona Police department, seems more heartfelt and thought out then many communities. I got the impression reading it that they care even though there are clearly challenges and problems. Cities that are open to things like street taco vendors are open to being accused of being 3rd world, because too many of them gives that impression. However, those individuals are just honest people trying to earn a living. Plus many of them make great tasting tacos. I hope you rethink your thoughts on Pomona and the rest of the cities in the Southland. SC
