Moving to Fresno...what parts are considered gang/high crime areas?

Would like to buy a small inexpensive house there but don't want to be in a bad area...have small kids. Thanks!

Thanks Johny-I am hoping we will find something we can afford in Clovis. My husband is working in the same area! We are tired of the commute. Thanks!

anywhere south is a bad area...Try clovis...that is where I live and love it. You can always rent there as it is affordable. I work on McKinnley and 168...I consider it gang infested. I would stay North of Shaw if you can...anything South of that is awful.
Northwest is good....Northeast is good as well...
Good luck

California in general is pretty bad with gangs regardless of where you live. Living next to them however can be significantly worse than being in their presence. I wouldn't move to Fresno myself, I would move north past SF. I speak from experience, I was stabbed and paralyzed as a teen by a gang member.

THE WHOLE CITY IS NO GOOD NOTHING BUT GANGS AND RUDE PEOPLE.
