    "Excellent. I work at home. So I don’t have to drive right now. When I did, it was the most terrifying seven miles on Eastbound 80 into West Berkeley. Almost always. It was not healthy. "

    "I grew up in this little hood and I love it here. As a kid I remember exploring Wildcat Canyon Regional Park like it was my own backyard. I still spend a lot of time there hiking, biking and dog walking. It's one of the few wild open spaces that allows dogs off-leash. "

    "I've lived in the area, and am now looking for a house to get back into the area. The public school, Mira Vista, is excellent, very good parent participation. There's no crime to speak of, traffic is minimal, and neighbors are friendly. It's not a real walking neighborhood in the sense of going to the store or parks on foot. But it's clean and nice to walk around in for fun. There's an organic grocery at the bottom of the hill, and it's ten minutes to Kensington for shopping and breakfast. This is a really pretty ten minutes with one traffic light and easy-going light traffic. It's about 12 minutes to Solano to Andronico's, and tons of restaurants. Bus takes you to Solano in ten minutes, to Shattuck/University in Berkeley in about fifteen minutes. This area is kind of a hidden jewel, and I hope it stays as laid back and easy-going as it is now."
