What neighborhood is right for you?

When clients move into Marin County, they often have preconceived ideas about local neighborhoods based on things they have heard from friends, etc. Finding the right neighborhood to live in is a very personal decision. Take the time to visit lots of different neighborhoods. If you find a neighborhood that looks appealing to you, visit it at different times of the day, during the week and on the weekends. Talk to people who live in the neighborhood, and on the particular street you are interested in. The feel of the neighborhood can vary dramatically from street to street.

Choosing the “right” neighborhood usually involves a series of tradeoffs.

• How far is the neighborhood from your work?
• How far is the neighborhood from your children’s school?
• Can you afford to live in the neighborhood?
• What is the weather like in your neighborhood?
• Is the neighborhood close to amenities that are important to you?

Find a neighborhood expert and ask him/her lots of questions. What neighborhood is best for you? Only you can decide!
