    "San clemente is whack. Was fun growing up here but it’s gotten worse over the year. Not to mention we live in a 1.5million dollar home in an affluent neighborhood in Talega and yet my car was stolen right out of my driveway last week. Everything is absurdly expensive and this town is not what it used to be."

    "Safe and friendly. Lots of activities and plenty to do. Farmers market on Sunday is a great place to take family, see friends and enjoy treats. Christmas time is a special time in the city that is well decorated. Summer time outdoor concerts and activities are second to none. Plenty of great shopping and restaurants. Del Mar is downtown full of great restaurants and unique shops. Music at ivy Lee's with new Orleans cuisine but start at the Cellars on del Mar for great wine, cheese and music. Beaches are well maintained, safe and there's even an historic pier. Great vibe and creative energy. A new Brazilian crepe place just opened up on del Mar. Amazing Brazilian coffee. Tapioca crepes are outstanding. San onofre with old mans surfing beach with firepits on the beach is a must for all. "
