Best and Worst Suburbs Around Fresno CA

[@dana44ism]

When the street signs are green your in Fresno, when they are brown, your in Clovis. LOL

[@carlybowers-smith8088]

My Dad taught at Reedley highschool and he lived there for a long time and we moved in with him for a while until he passed away. We moved from Reedley to Hanford several years later

[@joshmaldonado8608]

Bro Fresno is the worst economy right now! Unless you’re part of the “rich” the you’re fucked

[@Nathan_Lara]

I'm from Fowler and I think all us lil suburb towns feel strong about each other and appreciate what we got here in Fresno county. Everything you just said was so spot on from Clovis feeling like an extension of Fresno(a really nice extension) to all the other rankings. I've spent a lot of time in most these cities and they're all so diverse and beautiful so to have someone spreading what it's really like to live here is awesome.

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

I truly appreciate the support Nathan! It really is a great area and has plenty to offer, even the smaller towns. If you have any ideas for videos, I'm always open to suggestions! 😄

[@Welovehorrormovies]

I was born and raised in Tulare but lived in Fresno for 4 years then as soon as I graduated moved to San Francisco! ❤ im so glad I did. But im still rooting for Fresno to be the city I know it can be

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

There's definitely a lot of room for growth here. Glad that you found a place that works for you Stevie! Btw, any suggestions on must watch/read horror films or books?? 👻

[@Welovehorrormovies]

@@IAmMarkBeneke yes! I can recommend hundreds you’ll have to check out my new review I’ll be uploading later today

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

Awesome! Definitely will

[@kingsburghoney2022]

So glad you included Kingsburg!

[@Mall2Fresh]

Love the videos! Moved to clovis in March 2022. I love it. I always look forwad to seeing your uploads.

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

I'm glad you're enjoying them and Clovis as well! I appreciate the support 🙂

[@MRCALIEMS]

How is? Where did u move from? I’m looking to leaving LA to Clovis but not sure if I should pull the trigger

[@GerarddeMarignyStoryteller]

Great quality, entertaining and INFORMATIVE video brother Mark! Definitely provides the entire skinny (looking for my son and his gf = high-end renters). Appreciate you! 🙏🤟

[@Zetroc63]

This was told to me by a native Fresnon, The street names in Clovis are on Brown signs, the street names in Fresno are on green signs, that's when you know you crossed over.

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

Spot on! Although, there are certain spots where it gets a little weird with that (mostly Northern Fresno and Clovis).

[@LeonardLuzon]

Also, there's a rodeo logo on it as well

[@markschlingloff5155]

Some Fresno street signs are white and blue

[@jKLa]

To be clear, Sunnyside is an unincorporated area of Fresno County that is just barely surrounded by the outskirts of Fresno, but not actually part of the city. Unincorporated exurban areas of Madera County including the Madera Ranchos and many places in the foothills are growing and nice.

[@lewisphillips942]

Sunnyside is part of Fresno.

[@jKLa]

@@lewisphillips942 Sunnyside is not technically part of Fresno. It is a mainly unincorporated enclave within Fresno's southeast outskirts.

[@jKLa]

@@lewisphillips942 Sunnyside is not part of fresno. But many do consider it part of Fresno so in the vernacular sense it may well be.

[@Zetroc63]

Haven't followed you for to long but your reviews are spot on ALSO just abit tooo much.... lol.. opening our doors to outsiders . Have you done a piece on County islands within fresno city limits ?

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

Hahaha the reviews are too much or I am?? 😂 Probably a mix of both lol I haven't! That's actually a great topic to cover thanks for that!

[@peterbarrett5496]

Thanks for making the video

[@f2mel2]

I’m visiting from Long Beach California. Long Beach has a lot of potential and lives up to some of it. But it’s a shame that there can be so much homelessness so close to the Pacific Ocean. I was expecting Fresno proper to be a respite. Boy was I wrong.

[@f2mel2]

Any two bedroom two bath condos with the loft?

[@markschlingloff5155]

Hell yeah, RDLY is my home town. It's a great place to raise a family. I'm proud to say I am from RDLY!

[@ilarimakiranta]

Hey I'm from Finland and moving to Fresno CA for a year (exchange program) which means that I'm living in some random family. Would you say Fresno is a good place? Looking at the crime rates it seems kinda dangerous in a way. Edit: I'm 17 and gonna be studying in a public high school. Do you have any advice or any thoughts overall?

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

Ah, I'm very envious of you right meow! I wish I would have taken advantage of the exchange programs while in school. There are sections of Fresno that can be very crime prone but not all of it or even the majority of it. Do you know what school you would be attending?

[@ilarimakiranta]

@@IAmMarkBeneke No not yet. But it's through Rotary which is a charity organization or whatever it's called so I believe that I'm going to be sent to a good area. Good video nonetheless, kiitos paljon! 🇫🇮

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

Ole hyva! When you find out what school it'll be, let me know and i can give you a little more input. No matter what, I'm sure it'll be a great experience for you.

[@ilarimakiranta]

@@IAmMarkBeneke I don't know if you remember me but I'm going to Visalia. It's between Bakersfield and Fresno. Is it a good place? Average? Bad?

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

Hey hey! Visalia is a bit like a smaller version of Fresno. It's got it's good and bad but overall a lot of people enjoy living there because of the smaller town budding city feel. I lived there myself a very long time ago and have seen a huge growth since then. It'll depend on the type of lifestyle you're looking for but it's a nice city 🙂

[@neyxtoutherobot]

Since i live in Fresno all my life, I am not gonna lie its bad, and it continues to get worst

[@danielasolla-castellon2017]

What about Woodward park? Safe for a family? Good schools?

[@josephphengmeuang7832]

If you can afford to live in the Woodward park area, you're in the top 10% of the fresno/clovis area

[@es9374]

Community Regional Medical Center in which area it's belong? is it safe area?

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

There is one close to downtown Fresno and another in the NE side of Clovis. Clovis one is in a great area and i personally don't like downtown Fresno too much but I wouldn't consider the hospital to be unsafe.

[@es9374]

@@IAmMarkBeneke Thank you

[@parvinsamadi2738]

Thank u for ur video im planning to move for next year to frezno. I dont now which erea is safe .

[@azcanyoneer]

What's your opinion of Coarsegold?

[@richardf7223]

I used to live up there, it was pretty nice

[@markschlingloff5155]

It's a great place. I use to visit relatives when I was a kid. Great times up there.

[@JaeDee66]

Make it clear u mean fresno county. Also clovis is definitely the best. Fresno the city has some great neighborhoods. Smh everyone thinks fresno is flat out ghetto. plenty fresno natives will argue if we really have gangs lmao.

[@Backbonejoe]

Madera got crooked cops

[@stockblockglock]

fresno has a crooked mayor who was a cop. fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree

What is the zip code for Pinedale?

Hey Mark. I am a follower and enjoy your insight to Fresno CA. Which area would be best for LGBT folks?

[@fernandoBOT]

Tower District

[@askdoctorheather]

Thanks so much @@fernandoBOT

[@fernandoBOT]

@@askdoctorheather if you have any other Fresno specific questions please consider posting to the Fresno subreddit

[@americanbobtail1]

It is not good for any folks. It is an apathetic dump combined with hood depression.

[@jesuscalvillo5573]

What do you think about parlier ca

[@IAmMarkBeneke]

At its current size, I think it's a decent town to be in and close enough to Fresno where it can feel secluded but not to the point where you'd feel as if you're missing out. I covered it a bit in another video as well. It does have some impoverished areas that can be rougher but I've never felt unsafe when I've been there. It's a small affordable town with the farm-like feel

[@AbouTto_]

Which one has the more diverse community ?

[@americanbobtail1]

What do you consider diverse?

[@jnice6263]

You are lying downtown fresno is horrible fresno itself is awful

[@Dogeiscool7]

Sanger is goated

[@JerrySpann-fn4kw]

Clovis. Clover Valley.

[@user-no8xd6gj6y]

Wish u would of included the ethnicity breakdown for each of those suburbs 😂😂😂😂

I didn't know Fresno had suburbs. In Stockton we really have neighborhoods.
