    "Scotts Valley has been home for almost two years now. I love it and the overall vibe is good. Itโ€™s slowly getting colonized by techies but it wonโ€™t likely lose its rugged charms anytime soon."
  • Dalexander
    "Iโ€™ve lived here for four years and it is much better than surrounding areas. The one problem is that there are not many options for good restaurants."
  • T F.
    "Not so much events but the fact that people are just a little nicer than up the hill. Thereโ€™s just a type of person thatโ€™s attracted to this town and theyโ€™re generally hard working, outdoorsy, live and let live types."
  • Ttuong
    "Clean and no graffiti Nice neighborhoods. The city is growing and some growing pains include higher traffic but it isnโ€™t too bad. "

  • Ssmith
    "Difficult, but necessary to live in Scotts Valley. Highway 17 is the challenging during the commute hours of the winter"
  • Kengrid
    "This is a wonderful place to walk and play with your fur babies. Many walking paths and a large dog park"
  • pl
    "The wildlife limits how long dogs can be outside unattended. There are mountain lions and coyotes in the neighborhood. There are many roads for walking dogs which are a positive. "
  • Lbtreehouse
    "Small town feel, low crime, good location for commuting. Food is seriously lacking as is diversity. Great schools. "
  • Kengrid
    "I notice everyone walks their dogs here. We also have a dog park here also. Our community is very friendly and safe."

  • Ssmith
    "That local schools are strapped for cash and catering to a fairly affluent parent base. There is a strong social expectation that you will either contribute large amounts of time in the schools or cash. It is rough for working parents"
  • Dan M.
    "the schools are good, not enough decent restaurants, has lots of parks in area, and traffic is getting worse"
  • Hockeybunny24
    "Nothing anymore. My neighborhood, and the town in general is getting over run with housing units and losing the small town feel. Itโ€™s extremely sad "
