Vallejo is destined for great things. Shedding its unfair image of a crime infested city, it is now absolutely on the rebound! Homes are being fixed up, business is booming, improvements are being made all the time. New business coming in, the old downtown is becoming 'gentrified', and the new prosperity is showing everywhere you turn. Home prices are booming but still (relatively) affordable for the Bay Area. Crime is down, cops are being hired. A new school Superintendent has great plans and vision (with many changes already implemented like; closed campus, increased security, etc,) to correct the school system. What has always been awesome about Vallejo is its weather and location - the best in the Bay Area! Booming artist community breathing new life in to downtown. Many residents are community involved and optimistic about the great changes we are experiencing. Lovely old homes and scenic hills. It's not perfect, but its promising and flourishing.
I like that there is a lot of diversity, but lately, it has been getting a little more unsafe in certain parts of town. Also, the prices have been going up since a lot of people from San Francisco are coming to live here, but overall, a great place!
I've lived in Vallejo for my entire life, I can say without a doubt I love this city. It may look all sketchy but it's really not. Vallejo is like a hidden gem. The more you drive around Vallejo the more you can find! There are many families runs businesses that are great. I love this city, my home will always be here.
