Apparently this needs to be said, so hopefully everybody reads it.
Different opinions are going to be expressed in this subreddit. Lately it's been politics, in a different month it might be development, traffic control, schools, etc. Whatever the topic, we don't want incivility, trolling, baiting, vote manipulation, hate speech, misinformation, intolerance, personal information, or witch-hunting in the comments, titles, or the body of posts. Maybe I left something out, but that's it off the top of my head. Expect bans of varying length - up to and including permanent - if engaging in any of the above. It's not something we want to do, but there it is. If you see name-calling, trolling, etc please report it and don't escalate the situation. Feel free to message the mods with any questions or concerns.
Thanks a bunch, and thanks for being here & participating in the subreddit.
* edit - adding "witch-hunting", "baiting", and modmail link.

Hello all,
I wanted to share this resource for the benefit of our community.
Have an issue with the state of the 118 freeway running through Simi Valley?
See trash, weed overgrowth, etc?
The city of Simi Valley is not allowed to deploy our Public Works crew to the 118 for issues.
This also includes property along the on and off ramps to and from the freeway.
To submit a complaint form to resolve issues related to the 118 freeway,
Caltrans has a "Submit a Service Request" form that can be filled out here: https://csr.dot.ca.gov/
The issues usually get resolved in a few weeks based on my experience of submitting requests, but they are likely resolved based on the volume of complaints received.
Just wanted to share this resource as it is our duty as a community to ensure all aspects of our town are looked after.
Cheers, and have a nice day xx.

I'm looking to see if anyone has an at home heat transfer printer for a small logo for a shirt for a holloween costume.
Printbsize is like 4"x2"
It's a 1 off and I think it's too small a job for a local print shop as I've not gotten any calls back. I'd be happy to pay for materials or buy you your favorite beverage.
Please let me know!

Hi friends, I was wondering if anyone else went to the hiring event for the New Simi Valley WF. I made it to the second interview and then heard “we’ll let you know.”
Did anyone get hired on the spot?

Crossposting for awareness. We need to keep pressing the city on our Flock contract, and ensure that SVPD isn’t playing games with accountability like the VPD seems to be doing. We are also a CARE city, and need to ensure the local PD aren’t working with ICE to harass and remove our neighbors behind everyone’s back.

I moved to Simi Valley as a very young child and I remember seeing my first movie in a movie theater somewhere in Simi. I am trying to remember the movie theater.
I remember the movie was one of the benji movies and ET was also playing there. It was a small theater with only 2 screens. This had to be 1988-1990.
Based on my recollection it was on Cochran and Galena where Red's BBQ is now. The place is now an ice cream shop and Poki stop.
Did this movie theater exist or am I getting mixed up with some other place from my childhood memory?

An owner who likes comedy and is looking for long term partnerships
If I'm able lock in a venue I will come back here and give everyone free tickets to a show. Thank you for the help!

Visiting from out of town. I love to hit breweries in new cities. Any worth visiting? Will drive as well so it doesn't have to be just in simi. I visited Shadow Grave last time and enjoyed some of their beer.

...this is the video for you! Yeah, I realize I spent an inordinate amount of time on this unimportant question, but it was a fun little project. I hope there are at least one or two people out there that will find this video interesting.

Does Lemon Park have good Wednesday night runs? Trying to get back into playing basketball and also get back in shape. Are there good consistent runs at Lemon on Wednesdays?

The year is 2326. Rapid advances in technology and intelligence have solved most of the world's biggest issues. Disease, starvation, wealth inequality, all rapidly improving at a pace nobody had imagined. However, in the small town of Simi Valley, there is still much unrest. No, the incredible achievements of mankind seem to matter little here. Something far more sinister is amiss. For the stop light at the intersection of Cochran and Tracy is once again on the fritz. Try as they may, the city has yet to figure out a permanent fix to this crisis, and it threatens the sanity of the citizens and the existence of the city itself. The city has reportedly hired some of the world's best engineering minds, and spent untold amounts of tax money researching the issue no doubt. But with every "fix" comes much hope, and then twice the amount of despair in its place. Please take a moment to pray for this small town and its awful plight.

Over 700,000 people live within ten miles of Santa Susana Field Laboratory in LA. Boeing owns most of it, and it's one of California's most toxic, radioactive sites.
Right now, Boeing is about to demolish buildings that were used for nuclear research—including a plutonium fuel facility that had three radioactive accidents. The catch? A 2023 lawsuit win lets them treat these buildings as regular "abandoned warehouses" and use outdated 1980s studies instead of current safety standards.
The buildings still show signs of radioactivity. Plutonium-239 can cause cancer if trace amounts are inhaled. Boeing's plan means less protective dust mitigation, thousands of tons of potentially radioactive waste going to regular recycling centers and landfills, and workers plus nearby residents breathing air that could be contaminated.
I started a petition asking Boeing to either prove these buildings aren't still radioactive—or use the safest, most protective demolition and disposal practices possible. Things like independent air monitors, community-shared test results, HEPA-filtered construction tents, and treating all debris as low-level radioactive waste.
Just because what Boeing is doing is legal doesn't mean it's safe. If this matters to you—especially if you or your family live nearby—consider signing and sharing. What would you want someone to do if this was your family?

Hello looking for someone who’s really good with hair coloring, preferably grey blending in the Simi/ Ventura county area!

I need somewhere to vent! 😂 the new computerized soda machines at Toppers are horrible!
90% of the time they are out of all the customizable flavors (vanilla, cherry, etc) which is the whole point of these computerized machines!
Most the time they are also out of traditional soda flavors like Coke Zero.
They are causing unnecessary wait times just to get a quick refill because people are sorting through all the different flavor options, sorting through “out” flavors, etc.
Kids are using the machines without adult help, taking forever to pick a flavor.
Once you do pick a flavor and put your cup under the spout, the syrup from the soda shoots sticky droplets out all over your hand.
And to top it off, you know that touch screen is full of greasy germs!
I was excited to see they got the computerized machines at first like the Oxnard location. But these are not kept up the same. In addition, the soda area at the simi location is a narrow main walkway. Which now always has a line.
Okay, I’m done. Thanks for listening 😂😂😂
