    "The neighborhood is dog friendly. Though walking in areas that arenโ€™t busy with vehicle traffic is almost impossible ."
  • Jamesh.greendog
    "Itโ€™s nice to be a mile from the beach and part of Carlsbad village. Unfortunately the roads are very busy by where I live and big intersections keep you from having a quite peaceful walk."
  • Jamesh.greendog
    "Carlsbad village is not very walking friendly when you want to take a relaxing quiet stroll. The plus side is the beaches are nice and itโ€™s beautiful ."
  • Jamesh.greendog

    "I love older carlsbad I owned a home here for 20 plus years and lived here 36 years. my kids graduated high school here and my husband spent his whole life here. carlsbad has a old beach charm with strong community connections. there is also a large church going community as well. "
  • Kearstin J.
    "My commute is simple straight down el Camino or I can jump on the 5 depending on the time of day and not hit traffic "
  • Anastasia S.
    "Perfect location because itโ€™s so central to orange and SD airports. Easy access to the 76, overbuilt and not enough infrastructure to support it"
  • Rachel R.
    "What I love most about this neighborhood is there are families that live here, itโ€™s very clean and very safe."
  • Caulbaor
    "I donโ€™t know what kinda of events they have so far but there are some schools around which have many events "
  • Daniel A. P.
    "Love olde Carlsbad Iโ€™ve lived here for 4 yrs and looking forward to many many more years to come. Looking to buy something in this area close to the freeway if only it wasnโ€™t so expensive to live here "
  • Deborah M.
    "It is great ! the I-5 and the 78 are very near. And El Camino Real is a good alt rout e when the 5 is backed up"
  • Patty S. K.
    "Annual Christmas party, Fourth of July block party, Gardening classes at community garden end of cul-de-sac that leads to 10M library. A great of mix of age groups and pets."
  • DP
    "Iโ€™ve lived in Carlsbad for 5 years and I love the area, the people and the culture. Itโ€™s very expensive to buy and rent but the scenery is absolutely beautiful and the shops, beaches, and dining is great too."
  • Trulia User
    "Retired so only occasional drives to SD on freeway. Have used rail to go up to LA and down to SD. Parking downtown Carlsbad is HORRIBLE. Keeps us from venturing down there. Parking needs to be fixed ASAP."
  • Gale Tweedy
    "Hopefully as a dog owner, respecting to not have your animals going on other neighbors property. However there are often times it canโ€™t be helped, so always pick up your dogs deposits. There are a lot of people who walk their dogs and it is a very pet friendly area. "
  • Anastasia S.
    "Iโ€™ve lived in the neighborhood for 30 years the schools are amazing the people are even better I love this neighborhood the weather is perfect the beaches are great. The only thing that leaves to be desired is public office. Same with the police department there on the good old boy schedule so if you donโ€™t know anybody you wonโ€™t get hired. Just let you know not that Iโ€™m looking for a job with them."
  • CaliDreaming
    "Olde Carlsbad is one of the best coastal SoCal neighborhoods, especially for families! Mixes the Olde & the new very well with coastal weather/breezes, urban diversity/density, bike/walk/transit friendly with great suburban schools, safety & family friendly amenities. Best of both worlds quietly tucked between SD to the south, with OC & LA to the north."
  • 2020hjack
    "Pickleball at St Michaels Episcopal church where the spirit of a community and inclusion make every game a treat. There are good players at every level and the paddle wheel makes it easy to work in the flow of games. If you like making friends, stick around for an evening bbq with a great group of people. The Carlsbad Music Festival centers at St Michaels and brings many music lovers into the center of the community. They also sponsor a Wine Festival in October that seems like a special occasion."
