3685 Maple Ave #2, Oakland, CA 94602

"There are a few parks. Even some trails a short distance away. The immediate area has a lot of garbage around and it’s not very safe. "

"The neighborhood is great but a car is a necessity no buses go down this street, that's the only thing I don't like. Neighbors are so friendly and everyone gets along I love that."

"I have been living in this neighborhood for over a decade, and my connection to Oakland spans more than 20 years. During this time, I have witnessed a significant rise in violence in the area, which has become increasingly concerning. Alongside this troubling trend, the cost of living has also skyrocketed, making it challenging for long-term residents to thrive. Given these circumstances, I am seriously considering relocating elsewhere, seeking a community that is safer and more affordable. While I hold hope that, much like advancements in technology, there will eventually be effective solutions to combat this violence, I can't help but feel that those perpetuating it may need to experience the consequences of their actions firsthand. It’s a difficult situation that weighs heavily on my mind as I navigate the changes in the city I once loved."

"I enjoy living in Glenview, Oakland, CA. Many neighbors walk their dogs and stop to converse about life and neighborhood."

"I can walk to work in 30 minutes or ebike in 10 minutes downtown Oakland. 30 minutes to downtown financial district by trans bay bus."

"lots of families around here, safe walking neighborhood and schools. People are friendly and lots of family homes here "

"The public elementary school of Crocker Highlands is excellent, and the middle school Edna Brewer is very good too. Many families with children in the neighborhood, and many family and child center activities frequently take place in the community."
