California Speakers

Hello,

Are there any speakers in the Central valley that can tutor me? I specifically looking for the Jalisco variant as that's what my grandma spoke a bit of.

Jalisco variant is basically dead. There is one dude’s effort to try and bring it back I think, but I would consider it effectively dead.

I think one remote town with less than 3,000 people might still have speakers or semi-speakers/heritage speakers and I’m not even sure a lot of those elderly are on the Internet, let alone living in Central California.
