    "I lived in Willow Glen for 19 years, I also was raised in this area and went to the school’s here. It has been a great privilege being able to be around the community. It offers some great places and opportunities for single, families, and friends to share a meaningful connection conversations, making new friends, having meals, dancing on the avenue, music, crafts, biking, baking and so very much more all in one place, Christmas is the best time of the year, especially when you’re neighbors go all out and decorate the whole community, and people from all over come to see all the lights and decorations and the ambiance of the city (Willow Glen)within a city . It’s a beautiful and unique place, when you get a chance you have to come and see all the things going on in the neighborhood that I have always enjoyed. Be Blessed and Enjoy your time here!"

I also prefer to walk most of the time and I can get to work, grocery stores, my pharmacy, medical professionals, and many more within an hour of walking. I feel save enough to walk on my own as well, but I would still need a dog while walking at night. My neighbors are amazing and I love the community."
