Default Moving from South Texas to Lemoore...

So - I just got engaged to my long time boyfriend, and he is stationed at Lemoore NAS. Our daughter and I are leaving out May 2nd to move in with him. He has an apt off base...I'm just kind of wondering if anyone can help me out with knowing what to expect when I get out there. I've never been west of Texas, so I'm kind of clueless, and terrified to be honest

Nothing to get nervous about. In-fact, the San Joaquin valley [where Lemoore is located] is in many ways similar to Texas. It is a major agricultural area with lots of orchards\ crops. Quite hot during summer & not a whole lot to do except drive into Fresno or Bakersfield. It is a safe & family-oriented region.

We lived on Lemoore NAS for two years (05-07). We moved from FL. I hated Lemoore. I was very bored there. Hopefully you'll have a better experience.

Here are some sites that I visited while my husband was in the Navy and the 16 mths after he left the Navy:

southvalleymommies.com (local only)
militarysos.com (you'll meet people in Lemoore and all over the world! You'll have friends even before he gets transferred)
thewomanhood.com (sister site to SOS)

The women on the sites have girls' night out, playdates, etc.

Good luck getting comfy in Lemoore!

I just spoke with someone last month who moved from southeast Texas to Lemoore years ago and then chose to stay there. They are very comfortable with the area. You should be fine.

i disagree with Happ, we lived in Texas for 13 years and visited SoEast Texas, you will find them very different, but I think you will like the valley. the weather, though quite hot in the summer, is not humid like Texas. The one thing that will be similar, neither area is heavily populated and you can see for miles..You will probably find the demographis similar and the culture somwhat the same..

Tmarieb78, you mentioned moving from Fl and hating Lamoore, Fl and SoEast Texas are about as different and Los Angeles and Kalamozoo Mi. I think the OP will just fine.
