I've lived just south of the lake near Cobb mountain for a bit over 4 years now.
the whole county is fairly poor. Being on the lake, you're gonna be in the 'populated' area and subject to more of the less then stellar folks.
plenty of druggies, but unless you're in their neighborhood, it doesn't seem to bad.
the more rural you go, the nicer it is to me. There is not much to offer in the county for shopping or anything, like 1 major grocery store and a discount one for each of the city areas.
always a fire danger, even by the lake somewhat. Some sections only have 1 or 2 paths out and it's tight twisty roads.
the lake itself is ok... algae blooms from about July till September usually.
plan on driving 2 hours to get to most anything major.
if you visit only stay at the best western in clearlake.
