Sunnyvale Reviews
Rating 4.13 out of 5 272 reviews
The city of Sunnyvale is beautiful. I am privileged to live near downtown and have convenience accessible, such as transportation traveling from city to city by train, entertainment districts for adults and children to enjoy themselves, and also has stores ranging from farmer's market to retail. Though the city might sound all great, I worry that this beautiful city is being taken advantage of by some people who leave feces, tents, and piles of trash on the sidewalk. I am concerned for visitors and locals walking into places they might feel unsafe and unsanitary. I still have high hopes for Sunnyvale, for the city is still expanding with ongoing construction plans of building apartments and stores. I believe that my love for the city of Sunnyvale will grow as the city grows.
Very safe and quiet city. In the middle of the Bay Area so there is lots of great places to explore by car, train, and/or bus. Abundance of diverse stores, restaurants, and boutiques/antique stores. Places to hike are unlimited!
It has many great neighborhoods, schools, and it's quite safe! There's great access to food, grocery stores, and anything else you need in daily life. It definitely could use some more off-leash dog areas however.
