Overall, living in Belmont has been great. It is a great get away from the hustle and bustle of big cities like San Francisco or LA. And if you grow tired of the slow life, it's only a 30-40 minute drive to SF or Santa Cruz. For the most part, the schools and teachers really seem to care about the student's well being and scholastic success, and the students themselves are diverse and friendly. I have been a part of the Belmont education system since elementary school to high school, and there have been very little to no instances of bullying. Cyber-bullying is probably more prominent than physical, but it is still a relatively uncommon occurence, and school admins take swift action when it is reported to them. While the benefits far outweigh the cons, one of my biggest issue with Belmont is cost to live here. Affordability is a big one, and one that you'd think would drive people to the suburbs. However the exorbitant rates seen in NYC and SF seem to continue in Belmont.
I've been living in Belmont for my whole life. I've spent my childhood here. Belmont is a beautiful city with very family-friendly neighbors. The beautiful views and amazing hills with bright green trees are perfect to go on a bike ride or walk with friends. The schools around are amazing! They provide all the resources you need and are at a very safe location. There are many job opportunities for teens in shopping centers around schools. House costing is a bit overpriced but worth living here with a huge loving community.
I really like Belmont! It has great schools, restaurants, homes, and people. There are beautiful trails to enjoy the nature and Belmont always has great weather! I have lived in Belmont for 5 years, but have moved around a lot so I have many places to compare Belmont to and it is my favorite by far!
