    "I use the Highway which is close to my neighborhood. Outside of that, the county bus system is the only public transit. The commute traffic is bad. Aptos is bikeable around the highway but there are many tight roads and can be hilly. "

    "I have lived in this neighborhood 15 years and it’s been great. The large pine trees that still remain in Rio Del Mar are because of Mr Spreckels and that this land was his private hunting ground. He preserved the land as best as he could for future generations."
