I lived in Lemoore for 4 years; about 40 minutes south of Fresno for for four years. I spent a lot of time in that area. overall, I liked it. this was about 10-14 years ago, but at that time crime was a bit iffy - but was like most cities, in that it was relegated to certain areas of town.
I really enojoyed the surrounding areas; Merced, Hanford, Visalia, Concordia, etc.
I was in the military at that time and there was a huge issue between civiians and military at that time; but I always thought I would enjoy living out there as a civilian.
Close to so many things; Sequoias, SF, SD; even LV to a certain degree.
HOT as a MF in summer however. and extremely 'foggy' in the fall in the San Jaquin valley.
I really liked Visalia, although probably a bit of a drive to Fresno if you're talking a daily commute etc.
