Moving to Concord/Clayton area
Hi,
Does anyone live in or near Concord mear the border of Clayton? If so, do you like it?
My husband and I are thinking of moving to that area....we have friends that live in Clayton and they love it. We like the area and also the houses are cheaper there than they are on the San Francisco peninsula where we currently are.
Re: Moving to Concord/Clayton area
i grew up on the concord/clayton border and lived for 5 years in clayton proper. if we could afford to move back there, i would in a HEARTBEAT !
if you have any questions, feel free to pm me.
I'm familiar with Concord/Clayton. Clayton is far from the freeway so depending on whether you need to go to the BART station or 680, you should expect at least 30 minutes on Ygnacio Valley or Treat Blvd to Walnut Creek. I would imagine Clayton Valley Road is like that too in order to get to Concord. I'm not trying to scare you off but the drive to is a factor.
I don't know if you have kids or are planning to but if you are, are you looking for a neighborhood within a certain school district? I have family and friends that live between Treat Blvd & Concord High and their neighborhoods are nice but not all of Concord is like this.
IUI #1 10/12/11 (Bravelle + HCG + Prometrium & acupuncture) = 10/26 BFP! Beta #1=250, Beta #2= 615. 1st u/s 11/8.
a thumbnail of the commute times i've did that from 1998 to 2009 from Concord/Clayton area
25 mins from Clayton to Concord BART
1hr Clayton to WC BART
1hr Clayton to 24/680 Interchange
90 mins Clayton to Oakland (downtown)
30-45 mins to downtown WC
imo its the SOLE downside, Clayton is its own wonderful pocket FAR FAR FAR away from the freeway - expect 25-30 to get to ANY freeway at a minimum.
