    It's been casually over 100 degrees 5 days a week for the last 3 months in Antioch. Prepare for HEAT in the summers unlike most areas of the Bay.

    I grew up in Antioch and it has a special place in my heart. Antioch is not particularly business friendly, that’s why it hasn’t thrived in terms of jobs. The city elected officials don’t really care about the city itself which is evident when you drive around the city. But it’s home for now.

    I have 2 friends that call Antioch home. I've visited 1 of my 2 friends & where he resides, yes doesn't seem all that bad crime wise. I think he would had mentioned it too if it was that bad. As for my other friend, ironically he too was a Realtor & Antioch was his starter hometown! He gradually moved to Hercules then further down to Albany. Then finally Burlingame. He too didn't mention issues with crime though yes because he commuted often to the City, he despised the traffic along Highway 4 towards 680/24 & Caldecott Tunnel. He felt it would never get better. Then too he didn't have BART back then either as an option. Speaking of crime, I was told it's Amtrak Station is closing & moving to Oakley as an alternative stop now. The area around that station never looked safe & rather desolate I hate to say that when I'm on Amtrak San Joaquin.

    I live in Atwater CA. Looking to move to Antioch, Brentwood, Tracy or even as far as Lathrop Manteca area. I work Monday - Friday in Livermore now so I’m trying to get closer to work.
    I lived in a town where crime was high but it mostly was in some neighborhoods so I won’t rule out a town.

      Don't move here. Its not safe. Gangs, drugs, and violence. Unless you carry a gun and like living on the edge. Just going to the grocery store feels like a Mad Max situation. We have armed security at Safeway if that tells you anything. 😮

      Most cities, including Antioch, are a story of neighborhoods. Antioch has some great neighborhoods and some challenging ones. The city is trying to address challenges with its police force. Brentwood and Oakley tend to have fewer challenged neighborhoods.

      I live next door to Antioch, and unfortunately I have to go there for work sometimes. So don’t tell me that my opinion is unsubstantiated. You’re a realtor. You apparently make your living convincing people that it’s a great place to live, and that they should buy a home there.
      On February 24th Antioch racked up its fourth murder of the year. I guess you can always tell people, “It’s better than Oakland!”

    • @RichFlemingRealtor
      @RichFlemingRealtor  Рік тому +4

      Anitoch is DEFINITELY a city of neighborhoods. Some have more crime challenges while others are very safe. It depends where you live. Brentwood probably has lower overall crime levels, but, if you're commuting, living there may add 15 to 20 minutes to your drive. Contact me (info in video description) if you want to have a more indepth discussion.

      Like most cities, crime varies by neighborhood. Making a blanket statement about the entire city isn't accurate. I also can't say I agree with your assessment of crimes challenges. It's WAY more complex than that.

      @Steven Smith Thanks but to be honest no where is good in Cali now it's really a state gone to hell worse and worse every year but atleast where I live now in Socal is a wide spread County and not a tiny lil farm town where people have no life and choose violence as a hobby. The thing is that people have resources to change there community but choose to make it worse.
