    "I like the neighborhood, but sadly a lot of the houses here are OLD. The house we live in; it's freezing cold in the winter, hot in the summer because there is absolutely NO insulation whatsoever. We end up with $1000 a month PGE bill for 5 months every winter. The landlord has never bothered to upgrade so we are living in a house with 56 year old wiring. Otherwise, if you can secure one of the few updated/totally remodeled houses around here, it's a fantastic place to live. Depending on where you are to 85, it's pretty quiet except for the occasional party."
