"Most people don’t mind if a dog uses the bathroom on their lawns as long as their owners clean it up. "

"Our school events, neighbors, and block parties make our neighborhood special. People walking their dogs, families walking around the block with strollers create a sense of community and safety."

"This is a very close knit neighborhood where we all look out for each other. Majority of our neighbors introduced themselves within the first week of moving in. It’s very quiet and peaceful, I feel very comfortable and safe walking my son at night. "

"most people in this area are scared of big dogs even though most big dogs in this area are very friendly! unfortunately most people don't really understand dogs and their personalities! most big dogs just crave attention and are perhaps a little overzealous about it, but most people don't understand that they are just being friendly!"

"It’s beautiful. The houses are typically well kept. The houses aren’t so close that we feel like we can reach out the windows and touch each other. The houses are older and smaller but that’s ok. Good schools here too. "

"We just move to this neighborhood a few months ago and are so happy that we did. It’s a fairly quiet neighborhood, great for families. Neighbors are super friendly, the tree lined streets are beautiful and well kept. It also feels very safe at all times of day. So happy we found this neighborhood!"

"This is a safe neighbourhood. Though, there's someone flying a confederate flag. A police academy is nearby, so you hear lots of gunshots every morning. People park their RVs and horse trailers everywhere and take up a lot of street parking. You definitely need a car."

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhat a wonderful learning community! We are happy that our oldest son graduated from here (now at Bosco), ready for the challenges of high school. We still have a child in the middle school and he has been blessed to have a caring and dedicated group of teachers and staff. There are many activities beyond the academic classroom for students to grow and practice their faith, leadership, and sports. Class sizes are nice and small and the tuition is reasonable. Highly recommend this school!Parent Review6y ago12 Reviews - Los Altos Brethren School
