"Not a place to raise a family. Schools are bad and a lot homeless people. I would suggest Carlsbad "

"There are Plenty of dog owners in the area that are very friendly. However, I wish that they had more dog parka in the area, especially at the beach. If there was a dog beach I would enjoy this area much better."

"There is no dog beach or dog park it’s like a dog stuff desert, makes no sense considering there’s so many pups out here. But it’s nice "

"Oceanside was a bit sketchy when I was growing up, but now it’s a hub for artists and new businesses. Lots of good restaurants, brewery’s, and other small hip businesses are flourishing. "

"Mostly adult singles and couples. Few teens, fewer small children but that appears to be changing as more small families are moving into the neighborhood. Gentrification is on in a big way here with property values climbing quickly. It is a walkable urban, beachside neighborhood. I love downtown Oceanside, but I could get priced out soon, which is sad. Good bye locals, hello real estate investors. "

"This is an up and coming area that should be fantastic in a few years, but still has a little bit of a sketchy vibe. I wouldn’t let a child walk alone, but should generally be safe if with an adult."

"I’ve lived in this neighborhood for 4 years and the only problem I’ve had was noise. People like to blast their music and have loud parties late at night. You can also sometimes hear drunk people or couples arguing. Other than that it’s been nice living in Oceanside."

"It took a couple of years but I love it here, the quiet zone ( No Train horn) is expected to take effect the end of June and two new resorts down the street, so many new restaurants in the past couple of years..and home values have appreciated beyond expectations "

"I’ve been here two years. I like the feel of the place, for a small city it’s not bad. As a country girl it’s taken some getting used to, tho!"
