    "Very dog friendly neighborhood I see people walking their dogs however some of the sidewalks are not suitable for walking "
  • Trulia User
    "It’s is very calm. You hardly see kids playing outside or getting in trouble. Schools and staff overall are really good and caring."
  • Trulia User
    "MY commute is short around San Gabriel valley and I know short cuts due to familiarity to the area. "
  • Trulia User
    "Schools in the area are great! The high school has excellent sports programs especially baseball. The football field is always busy with activities or even just for daily exercise."
  • Trulia User
    "Arcadia is not the city it used to be. I have lived here over 40 years. If I were younger I would live elsewhere. "
  • Trulia User
    "All dog owners in my community are respectful and pick up after their pets. Typically all their pets are friendly dogs. Safe around children and/or dog owner have trained them well. "
  • Trulia User
    "Best of the Best! Hands down! Wife grew up here. We both have lived and worked in Arcadia for years. Children graduated from Arcadia High. We value our community it is becoming an expensive location to purchase a family home. It's upsetting to see these huge lots become nothing but ADU investments taking away the fundamental essence of family traditional home living. It's crazy. And if you were to see the bigger picture in the near future, it be no different than apartment living @ a more affordable rate. That's my take from Arcadia. Meanwhile we love it yet the future is uncertain. "
  • Trulia User
    "The schools are over crowded and many of them need a lot of them need repairs. There is no hot running water at the high school for students to wash their hands and the high school bathrooms are always dirty, "

  • Trulia User
    "Loads of traffic that go through traveling between 10 and 210 freeways. Had a car flip in front of my house and then another car crashed into front lawn next door within the same month this year. Would not recommend for walking but driving can also be a hassle because streets are engineered awkwardly. Lots of streets with merging in weird places. Last, id say meth has gotten to be a problem here with the homeless but unfortunately I imagine that is true in many areas."
  • Trulia User
    "The school district is overall rated in the top 4% for the whole country. And it is a public school with uniforms "
  • Trulia User
    "This place look's ok but rent is high. If your looking to rent this place I would wait when they lower the rent. Really high rent prices people aren't going to rent. And landlords at the end dont want their properties just sitting there. So their gonna have to lower the price. "
