    "Great area and great schools. Some great parks and close to the beach. Great for being outside but the hills and lack of sidewalks in areas makes it less walkable than other areas. Package theft does happen and people don’t clean up after their pets well. The rent is also really high around here. "
  • Trulia User
    "Cardiff is a great place to live for everyone. Great restaurants and seaside market is amazing. The beaches are great too. "
