Dublin, CA
Nice but with lots of problems -
5/22/2022Its a suburb of the bay area with no snow, lots of sunny days, less crime, lots of parks. However, it has lots of problems too, hence the 2 stars.
Problems which apply to the whole bay area, very high tax (53% income tax, 10.25% sales tax, property tax, lots more), high housing price (doubled in the past two years), high cost of living, wild fire (2-3 months of smog and danger of evacuation every year), terrible traffic and public transportation, risk of earthquake.
Problems specific to this region: Crowed schools, we are talking about long lines in front of bathroom during the breaks, teachers felt underpay and are constantly protesting, how good can they do their jobs if they are so unhappy; The weather is actually aweful though its only 50 miles away from san francisco, the temperature swings crazy during each day, from 30 in the night to 80 in the day, or 50 in the night to 100+ in the day, its basically a dessert with burning sun and strong wind, not comfortable walking half of the time. A lot more constructions, housing, and more crowded schools and higher tax coming. When the office opens again, the commute can be dreadful (yes, 3 hours daily to either SF or the Valley).
