    "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!! "

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!"
