    "southwest berkeley is a nice mix of people, activities, heritage, newness and has its own distinctive east bay flavor"
  • CT
    "My family has lived in this area for 50 years. It’s breathtakingly beautiful, extremely friendly neighbours, you feel like u r living in nature but you are a 10 minute walk to major shops and restaurants on Solano. I’m at peace her"
  • Jason.rzepka
    "west berkeley is an appealing neighborhood -- largely walkable, with character, lots of amenities nearby. biggest knocks are the cool breeze off the bay, bart isn't nearby and you can't easily access everyday items like milk or toilet paper."
  • Annawilson517
    "35 mins door to door to downtown SF via BART from Ashby Station. Easy bike parking and typically car spaces at Ashby if you arrive by 845am"
  • JP
    "The walks one can take through the Berkeley Hills keeps one focused on beauty and inner peace because you are surrounded by the natural world of redwoods, live oak trees hundreds of years old, soaring birds, extraordinary light at sunset, and did I say beauty. Truly amazing weather as well. Best place in country to live well if you can afford it"
  • Lisa L.
    "This is a diverse neighborhood, w/families, singles, and older people. It is close to public transportation, a large park (dogs, tennis, ball games, rec center) and an excellent full-service market. Public school 3 blocks away. Lots of community involvement, block parties, etc. Close to a main thoroughfare yet actual street traffic is light."
