"Some pretty black and gray cats live in the area. They will not approach you if you don't call them over. Also, they do not fight with each other or make any noise. Some people feed them and pet them. I was one of those fortunate folks. That was the best part of it for me!"

Terry

Good jumping off point for Carrizo Plain National Monument but otherwise an ugly oil town with not much going for it.

5/5 - Excellent

It is a quiet little town. Everyone I met was very friendly. After the long drive to Taft, I went for a 30 minute walk close to sunset and felt safe walking streets.

5/5 - Excellent

Nice little town and very quiet. Off the beaten path, which is the way I like it.
