Review of Walnut Creek, California


Walnut Creek CA
Star Rating - 1/2/2012
I've lived in the Bay Area my whole life. I grew up in Livermore. At various times I've lived in Livermore, Pleasanton, and Walnut Creek--all of which are relatively close in proximity to one another. Though the climate here is nice compared to other states (so I'm told), the cost of living, the congestion, and the fast pace--for me personally--is overwhelming. The people here are not particularly hospitable either and I often get a sense of being snubbed at times. Of course, having lived in this area my whole life I'm probably biased to a certain extent. Hope this helps.

the Bay Area is amazing, Im a marketing director that lived in 22 cities accross the country, you have no idea, people always complain about every single place, the bad the good. to my ratings of all the cities accross the country that I lived. Walnut Creek and the areas around it are amazing. you are just blessed to live there!! and I can't wait to move back and just settle there. Come to Arizona or Southern California, people are WAY more rude here and racist! you live in an amazing place.
