2 Comments

Hello friends, i am moving in San Ramon area on 2nd Feb along with family (2 kids one in 1st Grade and other one in 6th Grade) and looking for some help to decide on following

  1. Apartment Community with lots of Indians? which one to pick based on accessibility of elementary and middle school as I heard kids have to be dropped off and picked up as there’s no bus facility in the area
  2. What are the good schools elementary & middle and what is the procedure to get them transferred in those schools as we are moving in from New Jersey
  3. What is the best commuting option to travel to Montgomery St San Francisco?. if BART is your advise then is there enough parking space to park the car daily at the station?

Any help or suggestions/guidance in this matter is really appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
Anu

Desis in Livermore?

8 Comments

New to Bay area ,We are a family with two kids ( 6 and 3 year old), I work in Pleasanton and my husband works in Cupertino. We are considering buying a single family house in south Livermore area (Sunset elementary or Emma Smith elementary) . We will feel a lot more confident about our decision to buy in Livermore if we knew of few Indian families in the area. How are these schools in comparison to Pleasanton and Dublin schools? Any other Pros and Cons of buying a home in Livermore? Thanks in advance for your inputs.

  2. We are open to both Dublin and Pleasanton.
  3. I don’t drive a car so must be able to drop the kids to preschool and kindergarten by walking.

Please provide us some information and you can reach me on [email protected].

After School, Pickup/Dropoff, Relocation Advise

Just bought a condo in Dublin…:)

5 Comments

We just bought a condo in Dublin and excited about it. We are moving in from Southern California and have following question:
-We are looking for day care after school from elementary school (daughter) and middle school (son). Any recommendations? It will be nice if the day care has pick up service from school.
-Has anyone used after school daycare in Frederickson and Wells Middle school? Or may be any other schools in this area? That is something new for us as schools in southern california does not offer after school day care. Is it good? worth it? etc?

Relocating to East Bay, need help…

4 Comments

Hi all, We are a couple moving to East Bay area in October for my new employment. My work location is in Livermore. I am looking for feedback on which cities to consider for living. I do not drive and looking for places close to public transport (BART/Wheels) and grocery stores. I am currently thinking of Dublin/Pleasanton/Livermore. I need your inputs on the following queries.
(1) Is it better to opt for a short-term rental for 1-2 months initially and then look for a better place.
(2) Any other cities that I missed in my earlier list.
(3) What are the best websites to search for rentals. Is craiglist ‘the’ best resource?
(4) Are there any places available from October for 1-2 month rental for a couple.
(5) what is the average rent, can I find a 1 bedroom flat within $1600/month.
Thanks,
Krishna

Relocating from South Bay (San Jose) to Trivalley

2 Comments

hi there,
I am very glad to have discovered this site. I currently work in San Jose area, and have one kid 4 years old, and planned to buy real estate, but feel it is very expensive, and not getting the value for the dollar.

I would like to relocate to the Trivalley area, preferably where there is very good Indian community, especially where the elementary schools are good, and good after school activities for kids. I am open to both condo/Townhome complexes where it is dense, but good indoor facilities should be there like gym, kids activity etc.

Two options for me:
1. What is the best apartment complex to rent, preferably closer to South Bay and to BART. Looking for under $2300 for a 2bd/2ba apartment/condo
2. If I were to purchase a home in 600K to 700K range, what area do you suggest.
Really appreciate all your feedback.
regards

moving to Dublin/Pleasanton/Livermore – Renting

Leave a comment

The review underneath has originated as a result of responding to an inquiry. Though it would help all or some who’ll be seeking an advise (I also advise you to do your own ground work before u decide) – I know how critical of a decision it would be when you are moving to a new area……..GOOD LUCK!

Springhouse, Eaves, Hacienda Commons doesn’t portray a clean, elegant on-premises feel though, to my limited knowledge, has a sizable Indians. Archstone Hacienda and Archstone Emerald has a lot better aura overall and probably decent size of desi tenants. After a month ……. and a half of viewing, reviewing here is my take on the area apts:

Criteria: lot of Indian tenants
Tier I: Eaves, Archstone Hacienda, Hacienda Commons

Tier II: Springhouse, Stoneridge, Iron Horse Trail, Park Siera, Emerald Park, Cottonwood, Parkwood, Archstone Emerald

Criteria: bang for the buck
Park Siera, Iron Horse Trail, Cottonwood, Emerald park
(all in DUBLIN)

Criteria: expensive for what they offer
Springhouse, Gatewood, Eaves, Hacienda Commons, Stoneridge

Of course, all of the apartments included here are extremely convenient, centered around all the big employers in the area, close to shopping, entertainment, and a lot more which anybody might want to get involved in. They are all close to the intersection of I-580 & I-680.

Hello Parents,
I am new member to this site. My family is planning to move to pleasanton in search of better schools for my 2 kids. A 4 yr old, who will join Kinder garten next year. And a 19 month old. We were looking at a property near stoneridge community, for which elementary would be Lydiksen. And Hart middle school.  I would like to know if there are decent number of indian kids going to that elementary? Also are there any indian day cares where I can send my little one to? Kindly reply and provide your valuable inputs. Since, that would help me decide if my family can move to this area or not.
Thanking a lot,
Revathi
