Corrupt City county government 0.5 rating By Anonymous ( Mar 23, 2020) Lived in salmon born and raised...had to leave and shut down nursery after 30 years because of corrupt politics and the society. For one...in the courthouse asking for public records on your own property and being told to get an attorney....against the law and a civil issue ...r ...Read More eal estate ages slander property, city official and mayor should be in jail...the highest meth and drug problem from Mexico drop offs and business people dropping drugs at airport from the 1970s still walking the streets. Very corrupt town..it's all about who you are and what you do and what toilet paper you use ....beware of the beauty..yes it's pretty but the town itself in a sinful place....not a place to make a living either...multi millionaires come to this town and become millionaires after a few years because the town sucks up the money like a slot machine....users of society....property assessments go up 30% or more. county commissioners are worthless. People get caught with drugs walk the streets. finding people to work as they all like unemployment only use the system illegally. Read Less
