    "It takes forever to get anywhere in Salinas. It’s an old town, much of which had been preserved for the sake of it being John Steinbeck’s hometown. This means narrow streets, minimal parking, and lots of congestion. There are only a few streets which connect “Old Town” to the newer developments... which calls for lots of traffic on those roads."

    "It takes a long time to get anywhere. The most nearby shops are on super-congested Main St, and the major shopping stores are all the way across town. Planning your shopping trips for only one day in each week will minimize headaches and time stuck in traffic. "
