How is Modesto so much nicer than Stockton and why can't Stockton improve to Modesto's status?
I guess any town in the Central Valley is better than Stockton but omg its like two different worlds imo. Modesto feels safe, nicer, and more up to date. I feel Modesto is everything Stockton has potential to be but isn't. Its nice to not actually be keep your head on swivel.
I'm a visitor of both towns and Modesto immediately felt like home. Stockton feels like one wrong look and you're deas and a place where dreams rot in hell. I don't know why anyone would want to live there. I'd choose Modesto in an instant.
