    "Close to the freeway easy access to hwy 140 into Merced. Downtown Atwater is 10 min away. Merced downtown is 15-20 min. "
  • Trulia User
    "nice blocks , well kept neighborhood. my friend works there , lawn service. I really want to live there. they have 3 pools and it's gated & safe. "
  • Trulia User
    "I see people using the bus stop down the street where I live. Easy access. My neighbors mind there own business, yards are clean, inside castle garden it feels safe to walk, great areas for the kids to play. Thereโ€™s a community pool and it has a fence with a lock so the kids canโ€™t get in unless they have supervision."
  • Jeff
    "Not to bad I drive to Modesto daily, I drive early enough that the traffic is non existent, make sure you have an economical car"
  • Hilaryduff
    "People walk their dogs and just leave their poop so if you donโ€™t like picking up your dogs poop then this is a perfect place for you. No one says anything. Most people wonโ€™t let you pet their dog either. Most dogs are for protecting so thatโ€™s why they wonโ€™t pet them. "
  • Amyodessa
    "I commute 40 miles. The great thing abbot my commute is the freeway access. I jump right on the freeway and I'm on my way."
  • Dreamcatcher1209429
    "I donโ€™t drive but itโ€™s way better the the Bay Area or Fresno or Modesto or even Turlock. 99 is scary. Thereโ€™s a lot of homeless people here now and A LOT of druggies/ mentally ill. When I first moved here they were not aloud to live on the streets and it was WAY nicer. Only person you saw on the side walk was a nice man with a smile sign. Now you have to hide everything and make sure youโ€™ve locked everything up super good canโ€™t open your blinds or leave your mail longer then an hour or leave anything visible in your car. Itโ€™s better then a big city but the police wonโ€™t do anything unless they feel like it. "
  • Wyvonne B.
    "I live in a senior community. Where everyone is nice & respectful to each other. We help each other here!!! It is Castlewood Sr Community on Buhach"

  • Javier V.
    "Great place to live! There arenโ€™t many places like Atwater that have the same sense of community and love. Like anywhere else there are bad areas and influences we would rather not have around. However the pros always outweigh the cons! In looking for a place to call home there is no where else in California I would rather see myself raising my family then in Atwater California."
  • Thestraycat
    "I donโ€™t drive but the bus is down the street picks up about every hour only one way though you can walk to the transpo itโ€™s about a mile and a half away. That can get you to Merced Turlock and other places in Atwater "
  • Dreamcatcher1209429
    "Watch youโ€™re kids cars fly by and donโ€™t really pay attention. Drinking and driving happens often. No parks are really safe. Iโ€™ve seen needles and drugs left around or needles in the grass at the parks. Theirs theifs all around"
