    "This is the ideal neighborhood that is safe, and very much like at the 1950's feel with the charm but updated wonderfully. Grew up here and still the same. Pricey but a place to call home!"

    "Great place to walk dogs - wide, lightly traveled streets. Many have no sidewalks, making lots of planting areas that make cleanup so much easier. Relatively few lawns. "

    "I grew up in Los Altos, it’s still a great town, but it’s definitely changed. At times, I wish the pendulum could swing back to when things weren’t so stressful!! When I grew up here, we’d play outdoors and with all our neighbors!! I hardly know our neighbors, I’ve attempted to get to know them, but they pretty much stick to themselves!! "

    "I am originally from Paris and have lived in this neighborhood for 17 years. My family and I love it. Now that the kids are going to college we thought of leaving the area because it’s quite expensive but it is also very safe, the weather is amazing and the community is very nice. Plus there’re lots of natural preserves and the sea close by as well as everything you need in the towns and city. Business is booming in the Silicon Valley... makes it tough to leave!"
