    "The Muller Place neighborhood is full of yuppies with young kids, and its small park is almost always in use but almost never crowded. The surrounding area is seedy--think used car dealerships, weed pharmacies and check cashing places--but it's steadily gentrifying. Downtown and Santana Row are a long walk or a short drive away. Short and pleasant walk to Rose Garden or the nice part of the Alameda."
