Stockton is the county seat of San Joaquin County in the Central Valley of the U.S. State of California. Stockton was founded by Captain Charles Maria Weber in 1849 after he acquired Rancho Campo de los Franceses. The city is named after Robert F. Stockton, and it was the first community in California to have a name not of Spanish or Native American origin. The city is located on the San Joaquin River in the northern San Joaquin Valley and had an estimated population of 320,554 by the California Department of Finance for 2017. Stockton is the 13th largest city in California and the 63rd largest city in the United States. It was named an All-America City in 1999, 2004, 2015 and again in 2017.
Built during the California Gold Rush, Stockton's seaport serves as a gateway to the Central Valley and beyond. It provided easy access for trade and transportation to the southern gold mines. The University of the Pacific (UOP), chartered in 1851, is the oldest university in California, and has been located in Stockton since 1923. As a result of the 2008 financial crisis, Stockton was the second largest city in the United States to file for bankruptcy protection. Stockton successfully exited bankruptcy in February 2015.

Crowd is younger people
There are several parks for walking to or walking dogs to, this is a brand new, attractive area with friendly people of all kinds of ethnicities. It is a quiet and clean neighborhood with security with neighbors watching out for one another.
At age 65 years old there is no no safe place for a single female to stay until they find housing in Stockton. Stockton shelter for the homeless you can sleep on the floor, check in at 3pm-7am dorm or take a top dunk even after seeing me holding a can. Apartments for seniors who are on SSI, SSDI are very hart to find even if you have a section 8 voucher or choice voucher it called now. I have been waiting for my voucher to be given to me since April 1, 2022.
I have been unemployed for almost 6 years now. I have diligently looked for work each week. In the 6 years I've been looking, I've only gotten 5 interviews. I have applied for everything from dog walker to receptionist. I have scored either Expert or Highly Proficient on all of the assessments that I've taken. I'm 58 yrs old, yet nobody will hire me.
