    "Mostly quiet, lots of cute houses, very diverse (age, race, household size, income) and overall great area. On street parking is usually not a problem but the streets got a bit crowded recently. Many long-term residents and owner occupied homes. Budding local business scene. good grocery, food, drink options nearby. walkable and easily bike-able to BART. "

    "The neighbors have known each other for generations. Our children grew up together and we all watch out for each other. Crime in this area has always been significantly lower than surrounding areas and we truly have that community feel here. It is a quiet neighborhood where people enjoy walking with their families and pets and we even know each other's pets by name and we look out for them as well. I would choose N/E Richmond over Berkeley or Oakland any day. - 35 yr res."
