This neighborhood gives young professionals and families the best of everything: great food, great access to health and fitness, and friendly people. Walk everywhere or take public transportation, but if you must take your car, you're 5 minutes from the freeway, 10 minutes from the Bay Bridge, and 20 minutes to downtown San Francisco.
Berkeley public schools allow your children to meet all kinds of people and exposes them to the world. The teachers are some of the best. MLK Middle School teaches students about cooking and gardening in their edible garden (founded by none other than Alice Waters of Chez Panisse) and Berkeley High has one of the best jazz bands in the country. UC Berkeley is rated the number 1 public university in the world and it's campus is gorgeous for all to visit. Audit classes! The professors are very welcoming.
I always feel safe in Westbrae and love my neighbors and neighborhood.

A lot of resources, parks, situated close to both central and so. berkeley libraries, Ohlone Greenway paths for bicycling, joggers, & families with strollers, plus a lot organic products in family owned stores and community-neighborhood gardens. Self contained area with public transportation access and friendly walkable streets.
I love Berkeley! The Bay Area is an international, accepting part of California. I feel like I could walk around in the strangest of outfits, and no one would think twice. It is also full of studious souls who attend and/or teach at the University.
