    "I live here, and have for 29 years. I am in my second home in Sierra Madre, having outgrown our starter home. This is like living in Mayberry - tight knit community, no traffic lights, thriving little commercial district with lots of al fresco dining, access to mountain trails, a few minutes drive to Pasadena or the mall. 25 min. to downtown LA (off peak hrs), 45 minutes to Santa Monica. under 2 hrs to Palm Springs "
