I grew up in San Leandro off Davis St. I absolutely loved it. It was a great place to grow up! It’s way to expensive to live there now but if I had stupid amounts of $$, I’d buy a house near the Marina for the beautiful views 💕
I’m shopping East Bay now, my family is here. Moving from Los Angeles . I really want a view of the bay from my new home and still be driving less than 30-40 minutes to Pleasent Hill where the family is. This little town seems like a good fit as far as getting a view home in my 1.3 budget. I don’t have kids but need a 2 car garage. That is rare seemingly in the hills. Love your videos. Really help me decide where to look
It's not great. Bad vibes in shopping centers. I shopped at Walmart on Davis Street. 2 ladies had their catalytic converters stolen while shopping . I dont go to any shopping areas in S.L.
San Leandro, used to be a great little town til… the murder of the cop bout four years ago, then the four girls coming out of the club were shot and killed, sideshow practically every night, Asians being followed and robbed right outside their home, teens riding (bout 200) their bikes down in the middle of the street, homeless on almost ever corner. If anything happen the cops just say file your report online. Shite for brain mayor, woke council, and popo that are apathetic to crime. No I would not recommend San Leandro as a place to live anymore. Looking forward to when I can leave. Oh and lest you think the schools are any good think again.
What do you love about San Leandro? I grew up there decades ago. I had the best childhood ever growing up there. Would love to return but just hear about the negative now
@@gigi1332 - I love it here. I've been living in San Leandro since 2009. I haven't experienced any crime here. I have great neighbors and we all look out for each other. I'm also a member of San Leandro Chamber of Commerce, and they always have great events! Horatio's (on the Marina) is my favorite restaurant. San Leandro also has the only Liberian restaurant in California- Kendeyah, which has amazing food. My church is also here. I've had nothing but good since I've been here. Don't let the negative comments stop you from moving back.
Have a family member living in San Leandro for the past few years and they like it. They have a solid great education from growing up in New England and a master's degree and is a teacher so rent is affordable for them. Have never heard any good things about Oakland though, lots of homelessness and crime! Are all the beaches in S.L rocky, no sand? Also, heard they have a cherry festival every year, sounds fun! Thanks for filling in the details.😄
Thanks for watching and commenting. Definitely no sand beaches in San Leandro. The do have sand beaches in nearby Alameda! Oakland has a its challenges for sure, but also has a LOT of GREAT areas! I've done a few videos talking about the various neighborhoods and pro and cons of Oakland.
LOL, tell the truth, it has become a dump like the rest of the Bay Area! I was born and raised there and it’s disgusting. Crime is high! You must have filmed this during lockdown, traffic is ridiculous.
Glad you were able to leave the Bay Area. Those of us that remain appreciate your departure. Videos are typically filmed 1 to 4 weeks before release and this video obviously wasn't filmed during the lockdown. Thanks for stopping by to spread your salt.
Your right It has become a crime ridden cess pit. Yes I’m still here. So don’t try and guilt me. I have seen friend leave and the schools deteriorate in quality. People used to be able to walk down the street with out worrying about being mug or assaulted. This isn’t some big city it’s a small residential city. IN my neighborhood alone 4 Asians mugged just in the past few months. Two break is while the families were HOME. Side shows in residential neighborhoods. And homeless walking down our street breaking into cars. And cops don’t bother. 🎉
I grew up there as well and had the best childhood there. Thinking of returning but only heretic worst about it now unfortunately. Is it really that bad?
@@gigi1332 I’m loathed to say it because I chose to move to SL in 1996. But yes it has become crime ridden. And no joke homeless walking down our street, one broke into me vehicle on camera no police showed up. Side show at the end of our street cops showed up, didn’t even stop them just let them go speeding down the street. Grow house caught fire a few months ago two streets over. Two house on our street we’re broken into WHILE the families were home. Scary stuff. So yea even as die hard as I am I thought about moving.
they defunded the police that is why. I saved 15,000 and started from scratch just outside of nashville Tennessee. I was raised in san leandro but there is nothing there for me now.
So which San Leandro schools are managed by the Castro Valley Unified School District (CVUSD)? I could not find on CVUSD website. You said East of 580 which are the hills and homes. I don’t believe there are any public elementary schools east of 580.
The district cover a small portion of homes in the hills of San Leandro. There is not necessarily a school in that immediate area. Here's a link to the district map: www.zipdatamaps.com/school-district/california/castro-valley-unified-school-district
Hi people I just looking to move, I got a new job there but I need some recommendation where area to live good weather pre schools, transportation, low crime thanks a lot folks.
@@traviskam1332 Going into Covid and the summer of love/defund the police movement. City leaders let homeless RV's move into commercial zones and now when the sun goes down they are looking to steal anything not locked up.
I can't say I'm familiar with all of the details about the development, but from what I do know, I'm in favor of it. I think it will bring need vitality to the San Leandro economy and make the city more of a destination. The housing is also very necessary. Sorry for the delay in responding ... I check the comments occasionally.
There's no good Delis, most of the town rolls up when the sun goes down. You can go to Chilis on East 14th at Bayfair mall, but everytime I've gone there it's poor service and rude bartenders. San Leandro is like a town that's afraid to grow up. Kind of boring actually.
@@RichFlemingRealtor Comical. In everyone's world it is. Take two seconds and do a little research; it sounds like your oblivious to the obvious. Couldn't pay me enough money to live there.
@@KiddManifest ... you're entitled to your opinion. Glad for you that you don't live there. If you think it's a horrible and is defined by a drug problem, stay away. Mind you, I'm not saying there are no drug challenges, but cities like San Ramon and Fremont have their own drug challenges. Rarely does one aspect define a city.

Jennifer! Thanks for stopping by the channel and sharing your thoughts! let me know if you have any questions.
From Hawaii, currently living in San Leandro. I love it 🤩
Glad you love it!
Well done Sir, We’ll done 👍🏻
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment! let me know if there aother subjects you'd like me cover.
San Leandro also has a great pistol and rifle range, located on Davis Street. Open 7 days a week, indoor and outdoor ranges.
I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing.
lol I lived in san leandro, its one of those places where you will find yourself jumping on bart train to get to a city with some fun.
thanks for sharing.
San Leandro needs more restaurants, the good ones are closed
Completely agree!
They gentrifying the marina 🤦🏽♂️
And open a bookstore and a Trader Joe's--though for years TJ's refused.
@@HerAeolianHarpSprouts being built though
I never knew there was a town called San Leandro. My name is Leandro. Maybe someday I'll visit there. Greetings from Brazil!
Leandro! Thanks for stopping by the channel! I'm sure San Leandro would be happy to have its namesake come and visit!
Lived there 1991-96; it was beautiful and the people pleasant...miss it!
lol nice
Former sundown town
Very true. San Leandro has a mixed history.
@@RichFlemingRealtor You are being nice. Not a safe place for certain people back in the day. it had a well-deserved reputation.

Thanks for the video, very informative. I live in San Leandro
Thanks for watching!
I grew up in San Leandro on Aurora Dr and had the very best childhood ever growing up there.
Ghirardelli factory is the best ;

You really showed us what it's like to live there! Great video!
Thanks! Keep up the good work on your end. A video a week!
Thanks!

Marlene! Congratulations on the new job! Reach out to me at 925.386.2999 (call/text) or at Rich@RichFlemingGroup.com. We can discuss further.
Look in Hercules or Pinole
it’s turned ghetto. i raised in SL. I just recently moved to rural tennessee 😇
Glad you were able to move somewhere you're happy.
When did it become ghetto?
@@traviskam1332 Going into Covid and the summer of love/defund the police movement. City leaders let homeless RV's move into commercial zones and now when the sun goes down they are looking to steal anything not locked up.
It was a trailer park trash city back in the day, alone with San Lorenzo. They both were very racist cities.
What do you think of Shoreline development?
I can't say I'm familiar with all of the details about the development, but from what I do know, I'm in favor of it. I think it will bring need vitality to the San Leandro economy and make the city more of a destination. The housing is also very necessary.

Try Galvan’s Market, Estudillo Produce & Deli, and Bara’s Deli
Go to Bara’s deli best sandwiches in east bay
LOL this was funny. Apprecriate the video, but San Leandro was horrible, and drug influenced greatly.
Maybe in your world it is.
