    "I don’t have one. I work from home. When I did commute it was an easy 9 mile commute on 580. It’s low traffic because during daytime hours they do not allow semis. "
  • Chelseaannehacker
    "Safe place to walk your dogs, but not a lot of stop signs for safe crossing. Some neighbors have dogs that bark a lot when others are walking by, but overall a great place to walk your dog. "

    "Always perfect weather, and beautiful sunset views of either bay or the hills from most all of the homes. And yes it is walkable to restaurants on MacArthur, and more things are popping up on High street. "
  • zenarandi
    "This is a beautiful, clean, green community with surprisingly tranquil and peaceful atmosphere. People are very nice and the community has a very nice sense of care, with a lot of smiles and greetings yet privacy respected. There are not many commercials nearby or within the area but it is the very reason why this mild hilly community is so exclusively special. Shops, parks, entertainments, business, city center are all in proximity. This neighborhood is a hidden gem of Oakland and I love it!"
  • P K.
    "This area might not be for everyone, but it's fairly quite, neighbors are nice and I have had no problem in the year and a half since I bought my house in this neighborhood. I'm a single female, I feel totally safe and love the amount of house and yard space I got by buying here in Maxwell Park/Fairfax. Cute neighborhood. "
