        Sacramento, the capital of California, a place where everybody’s up on their feet and have a big smile on their face like they won the lottery or something. Neighbors would be greeting neighbors and lots of positivity flowing throughout Sacramento. The children would play local parks’ playground and enjoy themselves. Everybody gets along with each other and have positive attitude toward another. I enjoy living in a city where the communities are strong and everybody’s making the right choices to make it a better place.

          In reality, this really isn’t the case based on MY experience of living here in Sacramento my whole life. Every day, I would go to school and my neighborhood is a ghost town, not a lot happening here. Some people aren’t in the best of moods when they’re owed. It isn’t entirely positive as there are negativity in certain areas. Children would love the playgrounds if they love playing next to vandalized equipment and broken glass laying in the bark.

          If you’ve seen a presentation video on Sacramento, you’re obviously not being told the whole truth. They would be leaving the issues that this city heavily struggles with to save face. Only thing I hear when I head outside is traffic and sirens. Homelessness would usually common in the streets. In all honesty, I would do the same to not show our issues as we’re not the only city that has struggles.

          Based on what I’ve said, Sacramento loves to welcome visitors, but don’t try to consider the idea of living here.
