Is it me or is this becoming a way of life on the west side of Glendora? I'm gonna start telling people I live in the ghetto part.

Wow, I was womdering what was going on with the helicopters up above.. Glad that the Patch post these stories as such a speedy manner.
I agree that Glendora is not the nice little town it used to be..

I don't think Glendora has changed that much in the 23 years I've lived here. I just think that because of sites like Patch and social networks, we are more informed of what's going on.

Glendora is not the nice little town it used to be because the demograghic is not what it used to be.

Neither is the world. Glendora is just a reflection of the bigger picture.

I agree that the media and the internet have speeded the news to us much faster, however, the vast majority of the people stealing, dealing/using drugs, having warrants for their arrest, etc., etc., are from other towns than Glendora or are homeless from other areas. I believe that the majority of people from glendora are still the decent sort from, 20, 30, 40 years ago.
B.K. Holthaus November 6, 2012 at 02:27 pm
Agreed, Charles. Good point!

The chase started in Pasadena in a stolen SUV. So it was just coincidence that it ended on Barranca in Glendora.I still love our community...kind of addded some excitement to our little town.

All great points and I really like Glendora especially after moving here last year. I agree it is not the people of Glendora causing any problems but the criminals from surrounding communities seem to be spilling over into our beautiful town. What does that say about the overall crime? I see the gang tags all over Azusa and on the boarder so I know they are active.

Yes, they do need to bulldoze Hobo Junction along with the recycling center to the west of it thatRead More attracts its inhabitants.
Tina June 18, 2013 at 12:28 pm
You are so right Danlp oh how I wish they would clean that area up. I might be wrong but it appearsRead More to be getting worse. They not only take up all the grass area but are now starting to sit out in front of Wells Fargo. Come on Glendora.....
K.K June 17, 2013 at 08:06 am
That's what I've been wondering????? Typical Glendora withholding information. Sounded like a methRead More lab blowing up. I heard it was on vista Bonita and some type of " chemical fire".
Janelle June 18, 2013 at 04:08 pm
I called the non-emergency # for the Glendora Police Dept. and the operator told me 'they' knewRead More nothing about the explosion. Then I told her I had 'just read' on Patch that a Glendora Police Officer had told a resident that it probably was an industrial fire cracker, but I 'thought' it was way too massive for that. The operator had 'nothing' more to say.

The local government has chosen to adopt the Sgt. Schultz syndrome that is used by all those in TheRead More District of Corruption, in Washington. Why not? It is working for them, they are getting away with everything they try.

Dance Street West has great teachers who have the great ability to combine serious dance instructionRead More with lots of fun! My girls and their friends love it!

Well, good luck with that Donald, I've been sending emails to the City Manager ( Mr. Jeffries) for 2Read More years about that stretch of road and all that's been done is the filling of two small potholes. The road condition is an embarrassment to all in the city.
carolyn May 30, 2013 at 11:08 am
I agree with you Danlp, it is a mess on Grand Ave. from Bennett to Sierra Madre. The road had soRead More many pot holes its hard to travel and its a main street wich is just making it worse. Wish they would do something about it Grand Ave.We pay taxes , and my car would appreciate it alot save on matience on my tires and balance.
B.K. Holthaus May 31, 2013 at 10:44 pm
Amen to you both. I have seen several streets in Glendora that could use repair. I was recentlyRead More driving in cities with much fewer resources and and smaller budgets than Glendora wondering why their roads are better than ours. Maybe we need to start with Grand and go from there....
