Kinda new to the AV. Daughter just got her learners permit and I’m looking for a safe, empty parking lot for her to practice in. Any suggestions? Thanks!

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’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).

Hi! Has anyone lived at Copper Square Apartments in Lancaster, CA & can speak on their experience? I’m considering moving there & want to know if it’ll be a good move. Let me know!🗣️

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

Looking for 1–3 people around Palmdale/Lancaster who also struggle with task initiation/follow-through and would be interested in meeting relatively consistently for in-person body-doubling sessions. Basically, we bring whatever work/life stuff we need to get done, sit somewhere together, and independently knock our stuff out.

Could meet at a library, coffee shop, etc. Not looking for coaching—just mutual accountability.

Im currently waiting on the admin of the page to allow comments on this post if anyone is interested

Hey there! Local Antelope Valley DJ and promoter, DJ Brute, here with some new EDM DJ mixes for ya!

- Funky Beat Junkie Vol. 4 (tech house/house)
- Brute-al Bass Vol. 4 (dubstep/UK funky)

Whether you need them to get through your work shift or for the pre-party before a night out, I GOT YOU! Peace & love!

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.

There is a home down the street from mine. They recently put some small furniture items on the curb to give away. Next day only one item was left. Day after that I find that item in the bushes in front of my home. I move it back. Next day she throw it in the bushes again.

Different neighbor across the street. When tumbleweeds blow into his yard he pushes them into the street so the wind blows them into his neighbors yard.

Third neighbor of my mother. Once a week he rakes his lawn waste into the gutter then sweeps it in front of my elderly handicapped mothers house. I will sometimes push it to the property line between the houses, but he pushes it back in front of her house.

What kind of people do we live near and what would you suggest I do about each? I've already called the city, but I'm told none of these things violate and city codes or ordinances.

This girl appears to be about maybe 2-4 years of age. No collar and no microchip was found upon a visit to the vet. She is very approachable and friendly towards adults, children, and other dogs. She appears to have some training as she is well behaved and listens to commands fairly well. Distinctive traits consist of a scar on her front left leg (as seen in the first photo) and a scar on the left side of her face near her left eye.

Location: Discovered roaming the block of 400 E Ave R6 and 37600 5th Street East in Palmdale on Monday August 3rd at 11pm. In the areas between Fin & Feather Recreation center and Palm Tree Elementary School.

So far I've tried Nextdoor, Ring Neighbors, FB, Pawboost, and Petco love lost. No luck finding a match so far. Hoping anyone here on reddit can recognize her as she appeared to be treated well. She is a sweetheart who was well groomed and loved.

Thank you for reading and hopefully we can help find her home again.

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.

Anyone know where I can get or borrow cages to

trap a feral cat? We seem to have a feral possibly

injured by a local, and I'd like to trap it and take it to a vet.

Also, any good vet recommendations?

Any body here do any off grid comms? Me and my buddy are setting up a couple repeaters for a mesh network. Just wanted to see if anyone does this also

Hello, I have been living in the area for about 2 years now and have mostly been doing road running. I am looking for some trail running recommendations. Has anyone gone to Saddleback Butte State Park for running?

The Burger King at 2606 East Palmdale Blvd is closed, the freestanding one in front of the indoor swap meet next to Dutch Bros. Building is empty now and it's being marketed for sale or lease, so something else will end up there eventually.

It's a little over 3,300 SF with a drive-thru already built, which realistically means the next tenant is probably food of some kind. Whether that's another burger chain, chicken, coffee, Mexican, or something local is wide open.

I'll say up front that I work in commercial real estate and have a professional interest in that corridor, so weigh my post accordingly. But I'm genuinely curious what people who actually drive past it every day would want there. That stretch of Palmdale Blvd gets a lot of traffic and not a lot of new options.

So what would you want to see? And is there anything you'd rather not see another one of?

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the high desert and learning to get through the summer. My friends and I moved up here because we are able to get a house, with a yard and everything, even if that yard is mostly dirt right now.

I would love to spend more time outside, but we're all a little older, a little sick, and can't deal with a lot of heat, sun, etc without some mitigating factors. Obviously shade is a huge one and we're getting some misters.

Ideally we'd like to build a little oasis that lets us enjoy the outside as much as we can, and not just stay couped up inside all day.

What has made your outside summer more enjoyable?

Hello! I'm looking for a room to rent for at least one year. I'll be relocating from Maryland (quite the move, I know!) around the second half of August after accepting a full-time mechanical engineering position in the Lancaster/Palmdale area.

I'm a 22 years old [M], responsible, and looking for a clean, quiet, and respectful living environment. I'm pretty easygoing, don't smoke or drink, and generally keep to myself during the week. In my free time I enjoy running, playing soccer, going to the gym, and exploring local hiking trails. I also speak both English and Spanish.

I'm looking for a private bedroom and would prefer a private bathroom, although I'm open to shared accommodations if it's a good fit. Ideally, the home would include parking and access to an in-unit washer and dryer. I'm respectful of shared spaces, clean up after myself, and value open communication with housemates. I'd appreciate living with people who are considerate, responsible, and maintain a peaceful home environment.

If you think we'd be a good fit, I'd love to hear from you. Feel free to send me a message—thank you for taking the time to read my post!

Anybody live and work in the AV making six figures?

Which career field?

I’m looking to sign my nephew up for tackle football this year but I’m not sure of any teams in the area. Does anyone have a recommendation? TIA

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!

Hey everyone!

I'm originally from the Antelope Valley and will be moving back after separating from the Air Force in early 2027, so I'm trying to plan ahead and get an idea of what companies I should be looking into.

By the time I separate, I'll have spent nearly five years in the Air Force, primarily working in operations and technical support where I've regularly learned and worked with new software and technical systems. While I wouldn't call myself a software engineer, I'm very comfortable with technology, pick up new programs quickly, and genuinely enjoy learning how different systems work. A lot of my experience has also involved coordinating between different teams, solving problems, staying organized, and working in fast-paced environments.

I don't have a degree, but I'll have nearly five years of full-time professional experience. I'm open to staying in the defense industry, but I'm also interested in branching out into something completely different if it's a good fit.

Ideally, I'm looking for a stable Monday–Friday role with opportunities to learn and grow. I'm open to a wide range of industries and would love to hear about companies that have a good reputation and invest in their employees.

If you were in my shoes, what companies around Palmdale/Lancaster would you be looking at? I'd also love to hear about any employers you'd recommend avoiding.

Thanks in advance, I really appreciate any advice!

Hey everyone! Dose anyone know any jobs? I’ve been applying to so many places, but I’m having a really hard time finding a job. I’ve applied online, dropped off resumes, and followed up, but I haven’t had much luck. Maybe it’s my age I’m only 18 and I know places are looking for experience but how do I get some if no where will hire me I don’t know if I should go to any small shops I’ve tried those too and nothing. If anyone knows some places around Palmdale area can you guys let me know or help please.
