This is a new winner for Antioch. Beat that Pittsburg!
I have been living in Antioch for six plus years off Jame Donlon.
Its disappointing to see such shallow people make comments about Antioch.
I will admit there are a few areas in the city that have problems, But our APD
are quick to react to any incidents that occur.
Antioch is a very good place to live.
