    "Oakland has culture, diversity, sense of community, nature and urban amenities. I personally love it here. "
  • Trulia User
    "Commute is pretty easy. A few minutes to the freeway or to BART. Safer to take transit from Orinda. Very short drive to downtown SF when traffic is light. "
  • BRich
    "It’s safe from what I’ve experienced. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of racists, which is a plus. And it’s pretty quiet "
  • Josh S.
    "There are dogs living here but no parks nearby. Dog owners exercise their dogs by walking them through the hills."
  • Clniesen
    "Not a great commute to Bart, or anywhere as I am up in the hills. Everywhere is a drive for me. However it’s a trade off to the view and the peaceful neighborhood."
  • Helen W.
    "It is centrally located for commuting to Berkeley or Oakland, and has an AC Transit bus for SF commuters."
  • Rinna
    "We live here and for us it is like coming home to a vacation place every day. This is on a small dead end street way up in the hills and there is lots of privacy but yet there is a friendly neighborhood that stays in touch and alerts people to possible danger or trespassers. We recommend this for anyone who can drive."
