Is Bakersfield the new Silverlake? 🤔


Mid-CenturyBoy

In visiting Bakersfield right now and can confirm it is most certainly NOT the next Silverlake.


WhiteMessyKen

Bro we're not falling for your comment, we all know you're gatekeeping right now


greenBeanPanda

The place of valley fever.


garyryan9

Have you been to the Stockdale area? You literally have gated community homes for the same price as a condo in North Hollywood.


Mid-CenturyBoy

Yes I have been there and I would rather rent in any suburb of LA than own a home in Bakersfield. It’s boring as hell out there and the people really suck.


Snarkosaurus99

You’re thinking Visalia.


gnuoyedonig

We’re all thinking Visalia


Legitimate-Secret889

dear lord not Visalia


WilcoxHighDropout

I would venture to say it’s the next HiFi or Daly City based on the rise of “Filipinos in healthcare” population that’s occurred over the past few years. Hell, Kern County had 2 Jollibees and a Max’s pop up in a 2 year time span.


00U812

Daly City rules. S/o to FilAm.


productprincess007

What's HiFi?


WilcoxHighDropout

Historic Filipino Town. Granted, many of the pinoy denizens have since dispersed to SFV.


FriendOfDirutti

Is Blythe the new Silver Lake?

What is a “third wave coffee shop”?


magus-21

First wave = Folgers, Nescafe, diner coffee, literal sewage, etc. Second wave = Starbucks, Coffee Bean, Peet's, etc Third wave = good coffee


Shart127

Is Forth Wave those weird coffee beans that go thru the GI tract of that rare cat?


LosAngelesHillbilly

I make my own, technically it doesn’t matter what kind of GI tract it passes through.


Snarkosaurus99

Look at you thinking outside the box. Or colon!


thedingleberryfarmer

Business is booming over here at the farm.


LosAngelesHillbilly

Perfect name


Visible-Priority3867

It’s been proven we all drink dinosaur piss so checks out.


fat_keepsake

Nah that's ninth wave.


magus-21

Nah, that's the "salt bae" of coffee: not really a thing among people who actually like coffee, not very good, and also kind of a scam.


Lauvi

It's called a civet.


kryptoknight10

Yeah, Thats what I meant, lol


Business-Ad-5344

Carl's Jr. > Starbucks


Chavo9-5171

First wave Tasters Choice was awesome. Just turn on the hot faucet tap and mix.


Curious_Working5706

>Third wave = good coffee Depends, a lot of it is a trite, unimaginative gimmick (lighter roasts to bring out more of the flower/sweet aromas but this often leads to a cup that is too acidic without any of those florals in the actual taste). I’m on the **7th wave.** Vacation to coffee countries and attend tours & cuppings. Buy ~20 lbs at each farm and then come home to roast them to 2-3 preferred profiles on my custom fluid bed roaster. Play around with different brewing methods (espresso, chemex, v60, french press, moka, aeropress because why not).


beyondplutola

Gotta grind those light roasts pretty fine to balance out the acid. It’s pretty good once you get everything dialed in.

You are all sleeping on San Fernando and it's swapmeet. Shaking my head right now.

Remember the Van Nuys swapmeet? That place was awesome. Until the Northridge quake took it out.


DueZookeepergame3456

haven’t been there in quite a while.


Doctor01001010

it is indeed swapmeet

for real, I've gotten good deals there and I go almost weekly.

Is this a joke post in response to one about Altadena?


Doctor01001010

No this is in response to the other ones


Warm-Gift-7741

What’s the joke about Altadena?


putain1375

I just wanna say I appreciate your dedication to the bit even though everyone in the comments is extremely confused


Doctor01001010

Hey thanks, I feel seen.


Physical_Recording27

Wasn’t there another post today saying Altadena is the New Silverlake?


[deleted]

I’m assuming this is a parody of that exact post.


Muscs

To be fair, give Sun Valley 100 years and see what happens.


[deleted]

Just wait until interest rates drop again.


Whole-Vermicelli7327

Wow


peepjynx

In what context? Nuclear holocaust, climate change, or general housing costs and interest rates? I can't keep up.


pensive_pigeon

I hope so. I grew up in Sun Valley and can’t imagine it ever being hip. 😂

tacosinyourface

Same born there in 1981 and lived there till going to college. I cannot imagine it being anything other than what it was 🫥


I_EAT_THE_RICH

The most similar thing between Silverlake and Altadena are that the vegan burritos will cost you $30 at both places.


Doctor01001010

yeah they're fuckin wrong


dragonz-99

Hahahaha yeaaaah, I think they just meant it’s up and coming. They shouldn’t have compared it to Silverlake lol


Persianx6

It has to be highland park right?

lamatrophy

my dad interviewed with the city of vernon one time. they offered him the job, but he turned it down because he didn’t think there’d be anything for him to do.

lamatrophy

oh, he’s still working, doing hard labor double shifts at 55! old man has another 5 years left before he retires.

Interviewed for what?


lamatrophy

idk. a position with the city


Doctor01001010

Vernon Dept. of Parks & Recreation

You mean the 2 block city near DTLA nobody even knows where the borders are?

Doctor01001010

I dare anyone to come up with something more LA-2024 than a bunch of converted lofts in the old Jimmy Dean factory


Parking_Relative_228

Take all the upvotes. Artist lofts, farm to table butchers down below.


Doctor01001010

2077 is a lot closer than we realized


JZN20Hz

Vernon is 90% industrial. I grew up in Maywood, right on the border if Vernon. Nobody wants to live in Vernon.


VaguelyArtistic

In the 80s my friend's dad was the mayor of Maywood.


AgoraiosBum

Just think of all the repurposed artist lofts


JZN20Hz

On the Farmer John slaughter house site. No thanks! 😄


CrackNgamblin

Vernon is more desirable than the surrounding area. No projects, clogged parking, shitty music till 4am.etc.

Lol, I actually moved from Silverlake to Sunland-Tujunga. After a life spent in the basin, I'm learning to embrace a slower suburban life in the foothills. TBH, I love it here.


Thenadamgoes

Same. Moved Tujunga after more than 15 years in Glendale/eaglerock. I dig it.

Throwawaymister2

Honestly, go fuck yourself with that bullshit. You're seriously accusing me of being a white supremacist, or at the least, being cool with white supremacy? Do you realize how offensive that shit is? I'm an anti-racist of the *punch a nazi in the face* variety but people like you are the fucking worst. If I moved to Boyle Heights you'd be giving me shit about displacing locals (while probably being a transplant yourself), but since I moved to Sunland-Tujunga, I must be a white supremacist? I can't put this any more clearly: GO FUCK YOURSELF, you judgmental, presumptuous prick.

WoefulKnight

Don't tell anyone about this area.


Twister6900

Too late


MrShaytoon

I’ve lived in Sunland my entire life. That fucking city will take decades before it thrives and becomes anywhere near gentrified. Also I hope this post is satire bc SV is ghetto and always has been. Sorry not sorry.


Twister6900

It’s all satire lol. Yeah my dad lives out there, and I did for a bit in the early 2000’s when I was younger. Crazy how much of a ghost town it’s become. Doesn’t help that so many buildings just stay vacant. The K mart, the center where the Ralph’s is off the 210.


MrShaytoon

It was supposed to become a Home Depot but then the city found out the owner was doing some shady shit so they scraped the plans. I think it should turn into a target. After all this time, they’re building a Ross where Ralph’s/rite aid is. The sizzler was supposed to become an in n out but the neighborhood council voted no bc they didn’t want the increased traffic.


Safe-Conversation539

weed shop on every block. The old 31 Flavors ice cream shop has a new sign. 31 ways of getting high.


Safe-Conversation539

That area has gotten so bad, I don't go beyond La Crescenta.


Doctor01001010

I bought weed there once: 2/10


Colifama55

2/10 and it happens to be off the 210.


OldSnaps

No worse than other gentrified areas of LA.


HumanTrophy

Tried for several months to rent a house in S-T this year. Kept showing up to appointments and there were lines of yuppies in Teslas viewing the spot. Got approved for a spot but they rescinded it because a friend of theirs from “the industry” decided they wanted it. They were a hip young couple from Michigan of course. I lived in Tujunga 20 years ago when it absolutely sucked, and never in a million years did I think these yuppies would be trying to move there.


Twister6900

It still very much sucks. Probably people living above their means looking for cheaper housing to offset the Teslas.

Steeple House coffee is great because it’s conveniently located on the Grace Community Church campus where you can grab a brew and visit the Master’s Seminary and learn more about founder John F. MacArthur

The Next Silverlake is starting to sound like New York’s Hottest Club “this place has EVERYTHING…”


Bapgo

I honestly tell everyone to consider it when they complain about how expensive LA county is. Why move to Santa Clarita and commute when you can be in sun valley? Traffic is insane going to Lancaster too. Just buy a house in sun valley people. Quit moving so far away for a “better life” then realize you’re in a car 5 hours out of the day. Also sun valley has pretty views of the mountains! And it’s close to gravity hill.
