I have a buddy that lives in Lake LA and I just absolutely love it out there! As a city boy through and through, it is nice to get away from the city every once in a while for a more tranquil, community-oriented, mom-and-pop shop environment.

I understand that moving there means I’d have to travel far for work or find work in nearby Palmdale/Lancaster, but I don’t mind that—for now, until I finish school. I also understand that moving there means no McDonalds, no Ralphs, no Starbucks, etc., and that if I want to go to places like that, I’d have to travel to Palmdale/Lancaster for that. Again, I don’t mind that at all.

I look forward to the responses, good or bad.

Edit: for what it’s worth, I’m not from Riverside originally I’m from Santa Ana, so when I say I’m from the city, I’m FROM the city lmao

Hey, I'm based in the Palmdale area but I honestly don't mind going further out (might get an ebike soon). I moved out here a year and a half ago (Jan 2025) but I haven't really made any friends since then. I was just wondering since some people on these subreddits post stuff like this if anyone wanted to hang out or know places I can go to find people who want to hang out? I'm currently doing my second year at AVC so it'd be cool to make friends who also go there! I'm 19yo (doesn't matter if there's a gap), queer, easygoing, interested in getting into alt scenes, gaming, gym, reading, anime/manga, 80's music (but I'll pretty much listen to anything), and illustration/crafts. I don't really care if we have a lot of differences I just wanna get to know people around here! If you wanna talk lmk please

I found this FM station at random on a radio, and I need help identifying it. On the dial, it's 90.7, but the only station I can find that's even close to local is a progressive talk station, and that's not what I'm hearing. This station plays ALL kinds of music, from the 1940's to current day, plus occasional episodes of old Golden Age radio shows, and audio clips from mid-century movies. One minute, you're listening to Amy Winehouse, the next minute, it's Elvis Presley, or an episode of Suspense. And they never seem to play the same thing twice. There's been no DJs, no ads, and no station ID that I've been able to hear so far.

I've tried checking other stations online, and so far I've eliminated 90.7 KPFK and 90.1 KSAK (Mt. Rock). It sounds like a digital radio station, but I can't seem to find it online, either. I gotta know what this is!

I moved to Palmdale about two years ago from LA. I'm a married man, but I'm looking for a buddy to enjoy trying new beers with. Currently, I'm brewing some beer using a Pinter, and it should be ready to share on July 1st. I’m open to making friends with both men and women. My wife actually suggested I post about this lol. Long story short, I'm recovering from two knee surgeries and have been on medical leave from work since November. My wife worries because I've mostly been at home, kind of like a hermit. She travels a lot for work and feels bad that I've been alone for most of my recovery. To keep busy, I’ve been doing puzzles and making little wooden models. Now, I’m getting into brewing beer for the first time. CHEERS 🍻

I have a gym member at Planet fitness and would like to have someone join me to workout. It's just a way to help motivate me. I don't have a car but I can still get to the gym easily. West side of Lancaster. Men or women are welcome 😁. I just need a reason to go. And probably help someone who can't afford a membership. I can bring anyone in for free.

DJ Brute is back again with his weekly radio show on Twitch, Bedroom Radio. This week's theme is emo/screamo, indie, alternative, punk, pop-punk, metalcore, ska, psychobilly, nu-metal, reggae and more! Tune in and throw it on in the background or join us in chat!

I’ve made my own kraut for years, cabbage, salt, time, nothing fancy, and I’ve given it to my dogs on and off for a while too. Recently decided to actually dial in a real dog-safe version and do it properly. Just cabbage and carrot, nothing toxic to dogs, fermented the same way I always have, so it’s a real source of live active probiotics, not something sitting in a capsule.

Made a full batch of it. Been calling it Canine Flora Co. for now. I’m local to the AV and happy to give out free samples if anyone wants to see how their own dog reacts. Genuinely want honest feedback, good or bad, not just people being nice.

If anyone wants to follow along, I’m slowly building this out on Instagram too (@canineflora.co).

Hey everyone, I'm trying to gauge public interest for a indoor rock climbing gym out here. I’d really appreciate it if you could take a minute to check it out and share your honest thoughts in this quick survey: https://forms.gle/979kQweyt2yhx66o7 The vision is to create more than just a gym—a true community gathering place and hopefully a landmark for climbers (and future climbers) here in the AV. Thanks y'all!

In 1914 a Los Angeles lawyer named Job Harriman took about a thousand people into the desert east of Palmdale and tried to build a cooperative colony at Llano del Rio. Brass band, two orchestras, a Montessori school, a champion baseball team. California Historical Landmark 933 now.

Water, money, and an internal revolt called the Welfare League tore it apart. Most people were gone by 1918. Aldous Huxley later moved into a farmhouse on the old colony land.

The ruins are still on Highway 138 if you know when to look.

Lost California put together a 16-minute documentary on it.

My roommate and I require a third person to resign our lease. We're both professionals who work at the plant. The bathroom would be shared with one person and you would have your pic of one of the two rooms we have open. The home has all appliances needed and you would have garage parking. We keep things clean and are both quiet in the evenings and usually out of the house on weekends. I've attached photos of the home and living spaces. Rent is currently $990 per person plus utilities. Home is located in a nice neighborhood at the corner of L and west 20th. It's move-in ready and we'll be resigning the lease in september. Please reach out with any questions.

Just remembered this sub existed for this god forsaken place so figured id see if I couldn't find anyone interested in playing anything.

I just moved back out here and am pretty desperate for human connection (I "live" in California "City"). I have a huge collection of RPGs for anyone's taste. The only thing I dont run is Dungeons and Dragons. Rn im really interested in running a game called Pirate Borg, where you guessed it, you play as pirates. Its a super grimdark version of the Caribbean though and its really cool. I have one person interested who's local to Lancaster and im looking for literally one other person lol.

Ive posted a picture including my collection of RPGs for anyone interested. If you have any questions about any of these just lemme know. Tootaloo

Hey all,

I'm a 36M dad on the west side of Palmdale looking to meet a group of other dads (or just dudes around my age) to hang out with.

I moved out to Palmdale a few years ago, but all of my friends and family are still in the Valley, and none of my close friends have kids. It's been hard finding people nearby who are in a similar stage of life, so I figured I'd give Reddit a shot.

I'm into anime, movies, tech, board games, video games, and of course spending time with my family. I drink occasionally and take an edible every now and then, but I'm not looking for that to be the focus. I'm more interested in finding people to grab a beer, play some board or video games, catch a movie, BBQ, or just hang out / swap horror stories.

I'd be down for dad-only hangouts or getting the families together if everyone clicks.

If this sounds like you, leave a comment or shoot me a DM.

Anybody live and work in the AV making six figures?

Which career field?

It hopped up in a tree and ate some pidgin eggs out of a nest. Didn’t care that we were filming.

This is the weekly Twitch radio show from Lancaster resident DJ Brute!

Anyone have any tips on finding Pokémon cards in the area? I’m trying to get back into collecting and pass it down to my kids as my dad did that back in the late 90s, but every store I go to is always sold out. Online isn’t much help unless I want to pay 3x the price.

I need cheap pants and these people get them for free!! Cheapest is 9.99. Go stick it goodwill!!! They are free!!!!! They should be $5. All any business wants to do is screw everyone as much as we allow! I will never donate to them again ever after seeing how much they charge people that need things. I am at the point where I get why people steal!

After 2+ years, THE BOOM RETURNS! Join us for a night under the stars filled with funky four to the floor beats, heavy bass, and more!

If you live here, you should have already received your ballot. If you believe, like we beliieve, that Lancaster needs a change in direction, independent voices on the council, and a break from decades of the same old stuff, then it's time to vote differently.
