Utah’s Version of Compton, but it’s crime rate is like 60% and Compton is like 97%. Just like how the best amusement park in California is either Six Flags or Disney Land and the best one in Utah is Lagoon, things in Utah are just not as extreme. West Valley City does get a few murder cases, it mostly is just drugs and pissed off red necks that commit those murders. Compton has Lots more gangs and has Mafia ran politics, that kind of stuff is not in West Valley City. Do keep in mind, it is still not a good place to raise your children, and you should not go out at night. Make sure you lock your doors and your gold, you won’t get robbed if you lock your doors. West Valley does have a lot of crime, but I can name twenty more cities in California that completely crushes West Valley’s crime rate.
Person1: I live in West Valley City, it’s such a scary place.
Person2: Bruh, my Grandma lives in Pleasant Grove California, stop being a bitch!
