    "I’ve lived here for over 30 years, raised our girls here. My wife was elected mayor twice, great place to live. The town is centered on families, we have one of the top primary schools in the State, and a nationally recognized private high school. Very low to non existent crime statistics, easy commute to San Francisco, great outdoor opportunities throughout the greater area."
