Can anyone tell me about this facility? How is management, staff, etc? I have a job interview lined up and would love info on it before I travel to go there if possible. Does anyone work there or live in the area? What would the area be like? Thanks for any help given.

Apr 5, 2010 gangs? i don't know about that. most of the houses around the western part of fullerton (st. jude) are gated communities. i know coz' i drive by st. jude's almost every day. you should be fine, you'll enjoy downtown fullerton also if you like the party/night scene.

But I don't recall any gangs and the downtown area is a lot of fun. It's mostly a college town because of Cal State Fullerton. There's a lot of traffic though.
slowrunner 66 Posts Apr 5, 2010 thanks for clarifying guys! I dont know the area so it's good to hear that it's safe

Did you interview for a new grad position?This location is really nice. I come to this area often and it seems pretty safe to me; I have never felt scared in this area. It is close to Yorba Linda and Fullerton is a really nice area with great schools. The hospital is also very nice. I recently went there to visit a friend who was in the hospital and it is newly remodeled.
