    "It's a very safe neighborhood. Cragmont park and remillard park are great for kids. It's beautiful and hilly so you need to be fit to get around. "
  • Cameron T.
    "Dog owners would and do love this neighborhood because there isn’t much traffic, there are many exciting animal smells to sniff—and dog walks are a terrific way to meet nice people quickly and easily."
  • Carmelo S.
    "A lot of residents have dogs and they walk them regularly. They congregate at Codornices Park across Berkeley Rose Garden"
  • Annabel
    "Easy, I drive to West Berkeley and it’s typically about 12 minutes to get to work. Driving in the Berkeley hills always calls for caution as there are people and children out on the streets where there aren’t always proper sidewalks. "
  • Princess O.
    "All the wildlife are present - squirrels, cats, deer, turkey to make your dog want to run and chase them away. Rare sightings of coyote in the neighborhood and mid night sounds of wild cats hunting."
  • Princess O.
    "Hills, architecture, parks every where, great city views on walks, a sense of community (which can make people too wary), greenery, lots of dog walking at any hour, nature is so close which is fantastic for bird watching (Cal Falcons, Commodores, etc), deer frolicking all the time, turkey can be seen on their strolls, every house a drive way but most are too small for cars to fit. "
  • Carmelo S.
    "Great view of the bay. Beautiful sunsets. Deer just walking around. Close to Lake Anza/Tilden Park. "
  • Urworsenightmare2013

  • Alastair
    "Summer Screen in the park, guided walks with the Berkeley Path Wanderers, concerts and lectures at assorted local venues."
  • Cecilia O. E.
    "A car is the preferred way to get around. The bus service is not very frequent and walking is possible, but takes time. "
  • Johnny.fruehe

    "Beautiful, safe neighborhood with stunning views and interesting neighbors. Access to all of the cultural amenities and parks in the Bay Area."
  • jkorchin
    "Haven't lived in this neighborhood in years, but often go back for friends and family and am always pleased to visit the area. It's green; the architecture is varied by virtue of the topography; stunning views of the City abound and are perfectly centered as this neighborhood is almost due east of the Golden Gate Bridge, which also plays a big role in the neighborhood's wonderful microclimate."
