Pros and Cons of Living in Oakland

Thank you for this video!

I’m 22 from Oakland I love my city but in about two years I would like to save up and relocate to Atlanta and invest in real estate thanks for showing love to the city you just got a like and earned a new subscriber

Bay native. Rent is good. Condo is more secure w parking lot. I regret being a home. Buyer. There is some real problems here at night. And I definitely am cautious at night. There are robberies and carjackings rampant and broken glass just because . It happens in even nice neighborhoods . You must be vigilant coming to car and leaving car. I’ve never felt this way since I came here from sf during college. It’s my first time feeling anxious and alert so hard.

Thanks for video

It'd be great if you could do a voiceover with this info as you're showing us Oakland. The pros and cons and the different areas.

Hi Simone, thank you for this video! I’m planning a move to Oakland for a job and was curious about areas that are best for a young professional to rent an apt. Thank you!

Oakland is Very diverse it have problems like everywhere else but if you stay out of East Oakland Another thing I luv bout the bay it’s never to hot but if u go to Antioch Area it’s always 100 degrees if that’s what u want

What is the traffic like in Oakland? We maybe relocating from Indianapolis.

Oakland is my hometown ❤️

East Oakland is going to be "cleared out" over the next ten years. The gentrification of the area is going to accelerate insanely. Invest in East Oakland!

I love OAKLAND ZOO near the Oakland Hills and FREE ADMISSION for seniors over 76 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Some people are so delusional, they can't understand how Oakland with it's high murder rate can be the top 5 most expensive city to live in in America. I've lived here since 1966, and I will say this. Crime is still a big issue. But the pattern is different. There didn't used to be all this killing over nothing like it is now. During the 70's, 80's, 90's, and early 2000's, the killing was the result of gang activities, and drug organizations. Now the murders are mostly perpetrated by crack babies, with no direction in life, who target the weak, and elderly. Robbing the rich or well off. Now people are killing in Oakland, in 2022 just to make the news.

Lots of professional cons there too

I've lived in Oakland for 10 years and I don't see a big difference between the cost of living in SF, San Jose and oakland. The only way to get it to be significantly lower is to move to outlying areas like Antioch, Vallejo. Sacramento

😍

Oakland is passable. I prefer to stay on my side of the bridge, though

The only good business in Oakland is selling tents.

Oakland should have more respect

best weather in the damn country.

you for this viewpoint Nick Johnson got Oakland f*** up
