    "Dog owners would love the Lake - great park areas, birds to chase, safe from cars. There is lots of trash, however. People don’t respect the lake. "
  • A.A.
    "There are a lot of dog owners, so it's a chance to meet new people. The path around the lake is more accessible than any parks, so walking around the lake is easier to do than driving to a nearby park."

    "Dog owners would love living in Lake Merritt. There are so many walks to go on and a small park where there are other owners with dogs."

  • Cheryl J.
    "The best community I've lived in in years! The lake, tourist attractions, and shopping make it unique. All the restaurants are great. There are farmers' markets, carnivals, and street fairs. And First Fridays are truly amazing, just seeing the community come out and have all types of fun together as a unit."
  • A.A.

  • A.A.
    "First I take a bus or Uber to get to the BART station. If it's not too late, I might walk. But I prefer not to walk after 9 p.m., just to stay safe."
  • Marcia J.
    "There are great places for kids to play."
  • A.A.
    "Always keep an eye on children. It's pretty safe, but I wouldn't let my child walk alone."
