Locals Only

Living here in Oceanside, California, where I've resided in and around my whole life up to this point, has been a wild ride. Said to be one of the "last hood beach towns", we really uphold that locals only vibe. Although gentrification is not too far around the bend, and the amount of tourists has really ramped up, this town is known to be seemingly dangerous. Here, you will find the culture around gangs, drugs, and even cars is booming. But, I'm comfortable here, it's where I grew up. I'm just another neighborhood kid.
