Current Resident: What I love about Suisun City is that it is a small town and it is surrounded by 2 other local towns all next door to each other. I'm stationed at Travis Air Force base. So it's only 10 minutes to work from the base. My college is also a 15 minutes from the house so it's really convenient for me to get to college as well. Everything is relatively close to Suisun City like San Francisco, Oakland, and Sacramento, three of the greatest cities in California are all near me. Which has made me living here grateful because it could be a lot worse. The things I would change in this town is the traffic lights camera detection. Because a lot of them don't work. I would make them to ground sensors that way the flow of traffic would be executed more efficiently.Read 69 Reviews
Current Resident: I love the old architecture and how friendly everybody is! You can't walk down the street or into the grocery store without someone stopping to say hi and ask you about your day. It is very quaint and charming and feels old fashioned because everyone walks slow and takes their time. There are beautiful hiking trails with views of the bay, and a convenient ferry service to San Francisco and other parts of the Bay Area. I also highly recommend thrift shopping here because there are lots of independent thrift stores owned by wonderful people with great prices. The Bay Area rappers like E40 and Nef the Pharoah are from Vallejo, and they are famous for creating iconic Bay Area words like "hella" and "hyphy". Vallejo is a charming hidden secret of the Bay Area that will hopefully stay a quaint working class haven because commuters don't want to move here and pay the extra bridge toll to get here.Read 229 Reviews

Current Resident: Since moving to Tukwila I have heard a lot of mixed reviews. One thing noticeable is the diversity in culture here. African, Europeans, Hispanic & Latin cultures flood the sidewalks, school buses and local shops in the area. Before moving here I had a look at the local crime rate, just to be sure I'm moving to the right place, and I was surprised that this small suburb is actually ranked number 1 in crime rate across the whole of the United States! Mind you, this new fact didn't affect the way I live or my moving situation. I figured everywhere to some degree is dangerous, whether your galavanting through city or getting lost in the countryside, everywhere has its level of danger and crime. However, if you're educated about what situations you're getting into and how to manage yourself in those certain situations, then a websites review about the crime shouldn't influence your choice of living.Read 78 Reviews

Break-ins are a totally common occurrence. I hope to see an improvement in security in our neighborhood. Read 42 Reviews
Current Resident: Greenhaven is a somewhat safe place to be. In the past, I thought Sacramento, Greenhaven was the safest place to be in the whole world- that was when I was a little kid. Now I realize there are many dangerous things out there and the only thing holding me together are my family, friends, and my teachers. However, usually things are alright until after midnight, things get sketchy. As long as the light shines, there is light. Afterwards, prepare to lock yourself in your house and don't come out even with company. Read 13 Reviews
Current Resident: There's many different cultures in Queens, which allows different people from different backgrounds to understand and live peacefully in the same neighborhood with one another. Children in school learn early that all people, despite ethnicity, native language, skin tone, or religion, are the same and can come together as a community. There are supermarkets, restaurants, gift stores, clothing stores, pharmacies, clinics, and more near apartments and houses in Queens. The train and bus stations are easy to find as well. The only complaint that I have now is that the marijuana scene is growing bigger and it can negatively impact Queens' youth.Read 69 Reviews

People in the neighborhood are very friendly, and keep an eye out for one another.

Current Resident: Fairfield is a great little town! The population is around 100,000, and growing. The community is great, the schools are decent, and the crime is fairly low. Downtown Fairfield is a little dirty, and low income families tend to move into that area. But the majority of Fairfield is apart of the middle class, and a decent amount is in the upper classes.Read 189 Reviews

There's an abundant of restaurants that are worth trying and great micro breweries all around. It's definitely affordable to live in Sacramento, with midtown being the prime spot, especially with the addition of the new sports Arena that recently opened. Sacramento is in an ideal location and within driving distance to great places- Lakes (Folsom Lake), Mountains (Tahoe), and Beaches ( Santa Cruz, San Francisco, etc).Read 225 Reviews

Current Resident: I've been living in Stafford since I was 2 years old, and I absolutely love it! I was apart of the Stafford Municipal School District from Kindergarten all the way thru 12th grade. We are our own district so there are no property taxes and we've had the same mayor since the 70s (so he's obviously a favorite). Stafford is large but quiet. I'd recommend anyone to move there.Read 48 Reviews
