    "I love living here, very close to SF and west oakland bart. Don't look for trouble and it won't find you. Go home at night, and lock your doors, and you'll be safe. Not a lot going on here, no real restaurants, or coffee places. However, you can just go to SF in less than 10 mins. No need to pay SF jacked prices, when West Oakland will do just fine. "

    "I've lived here for 1 year and it is not an easy place to live. I don't walk anywhere at night because of street gangs. No where close by to eat or grocery shop. Lots of people giving you looks when you walk around."
