Homes, cows, jails

“Holstein-Adjacent,” May 13, described a new community in Chino called the Preserve. The article informed me about the size of the community, its amenities and its future plans. The article also listed some concerns about the close proximity of the Chino Airport and the dairy farms.

I think it is also important to note the jails. The California Institution for Women is less than two miles away. And let’s not forget about the Heman G. Stark Youth Correctional Facility across the street from the airport (also less than two miles from the Preserve).

Last but not least is the California Institution for Men, also a hop, skip and a jump away. When my family and I visited the Preserve, we didn’t reject it because of the smelly dairy farms and the airport; we were alarmed about the prisons.
