I used to live in Walnut Creek in the 90’s. Although it has grown a lot since then, it was my favorite place to live even though I’m in San Diego now. I love Walnut Creek!
You didn’t mention Las Lomas High School, my alma mater, class of 65’. It’s “the other high school”. LOL We moved to WC in 1951. I didn’t recognize anything on your video until you drove south on Main Street. I grew up in WC. It was the best town in California! Maybe the world. LOL. Heather Farm (aka: Marshbank Ranch) was still a ranch. I boarded my horse there for $20 a month. Only 5 other boarders. I had a whole shed row and large paddock all to myself. There were walnut groves and pear orchards on Ygnacio Valley Rd. Nina Bancroft was one of my riding friends. Her family owned the walnut groves. All gone now. Sitting on our porch on North Main you had a view of pastures and poppies and a car went by every 15 minutes during rush hour. It was idyllic. To those who remember, I share your memories and your regrets. Walnut Creek was god’s little acre, as the saying goes. Thanks for the stroll down memory lane. Will watch for the sequel. 😊
Noice drive through downtown when Neumos Marcus was still there. Now Crate and barrel. We need to keep promoting downtown. I recently uploaded Downtown Walnut Creek video. Thanks for sharing
Nice and Creative Videos, This is really my favorite channle.:). I really glad to see your post and your world was so brilliant. 🌴🌴🌴 excellent and Much appreciated!!🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 from: Walnut City Los Angeles
I lived in Walnut Creek from 1985-1993 while I was in the Marine Corps stationed at the Concord Naval Weapons Station. It was still a small wonderful town back then, but now it has become just another trendy playground for the wealthy. The apartment I lived in for $465.00 a month is still there, nothing new but the paint and carpet and it now rents for over $3,000.00 a month. There is nothing left of the historical Walnut orchards, and at the end of the day, it's still in Commiefornia where hundreds of thousands are bailing out because of over reaching government and exploding taxes. I now have several "neighbors" on my road in Montana who fled Walnut Creek and other towns in Contra Costa County because of the condition of the entire state. It is a real shame what VOTERS have done to the once great state of California.
I've only seen tarantulas (probably _Aphonopelma iodius)_ up on Mount Diablo. They're nocturnal, but they'll come out of their burrows in the daytime for breeding season, in fall. They're probably in a lot of places around the green spaces and regional parks, but again, hardly ever see them, and never seen them in a home.
I live here and it’s actually boring. Everything is so expensive that you spend most if your time at work just to survive. I’m moving to tampa Florida next year. Can’t wait.
I moved here from Vegas, dont regret it and I would never move to Florida lol. I love Walnut Creek, we get so much rain we didnt get it in Vegas! Its also so green.

My all time favorite restaurant in my entire life is Montecatini! The atmosphere, food and wine never disappoint! It’s on Civic and N. Main.
Such a lovely town, thank you for sharing!
I am sold on Walnut Creek! Thank you for the information
Love the city of Walnut Creek!
Thank you for this video! I appreciate how thorough you were.

I went to Del Valle, the other-other high school, class of 77. Long gone now, I'm afraid.
Damn, I was born in ‘65! 😂

This video makes Walnut Creek seem so empty, it’s a much busier city than this, perhaps you were filming during covid lockdown?
Very nice area if you can afford to live there.
I work down at 1515 restaurant and lounge i don’t know if you’ve heard of it
Oh I saw you pass it in the video 🤩
I used to live here
great job . I am also in the bay area . We can cooperate .
I will be there .. nice city
Do you ever find turantulas in homes or walking about?
I live in Walnut creek ,and the answer is no. There's rarley insects or bugs. Which is great!

Depends on your field then. In my field, I make way more than if I were in Tampa, which is far less walkable.
