  • Skc 1.
    "Yes we love to Live at this Part of Vallejo, although some of my family members work in Oakland and Oakland International Air-Port. But commute is not a problem in the USA as most families own more than 2 Cars and there are also all forms of Public Transportations like Ferry to Oakland & San Francisco & Buses crossing the Vallejo Bridge & connecting to the the Bart Transit. What more do you need to convince you to live here in Vallejo, CA. where the costs of housing accomodations are about 20 % lower than El Sobrante, San Leandro, Oakland ,Alameda , Berkeley ,Pinole or San Francisco, and the Crime rate security is better than Oakland, Richmond , Alameda , San Leandro & San Francisco."
  • pjflannery
    "Souza Way is a beautiful looking well planned street; however its close proximity to the "Crest" makes it a completely undesirable place for anyone seeking: happiness, peace and a quality life. -- It is unconscionable to find that the Vallejo police will not respond to crimes unless a murder or very serious offense has been committed.
