We weren't considering Farallone view initially because of state of the facilities and low scores, but what we have found is a pleasant surprise. A supportive community, active PTA, extraordinary teachers, and great learning environment. Sounds like we're renovating facilities soon as well. Happy with our decision to stick to our hometown school.

"Montara is a jewel in the rough. It is a quiet and safe place to live. Most enjoyable is the sound of the ocean from my windows. At times, it is so loud it sounds like the waves are coming down the street. Just love that sound."

"We have trails to Montara Mountain right down the street. The beach is fairly dog friendly, compared to others in the area. There is a big dog community here on the coast so your pup will always have a friend to play with."

"We are coming up on our third year in this neighborhood and we love it more and more as time goes on. It is a rural area, but the commute into SF is under an hour. We are surrounded by friendly people who really care about where they live. Kids (and there are lots of them) can freely play outside, the local school is good quality, and the weather is really lovely for a coastal location. I feel totally safe walking around the area though I would not leave a dog outside overnight due to animals coming out of the surrounding hills."
