Richmond has its good parts and bad (like most cities), but its also quietly become one of the faster growing cities in the East Bay. We've seen a lot of professionals who work in Oakland and San Francisco because of its affordability and its still on the BART line for easy transportation. Because of this we are seeing more and more areas of Richmond turning over which then attracts more people. In that direction there is also El Sobrante, Pinole and Hercules. A lot of people like these cities as well.
@@livinginsfbayareathey’re moving to Point Richmond, not Richmond. Big difference. You recommending Richmond are gonna cause a lot of people to get hurt.
I agree I lived in the Bay Area for over 40 years and Oakland is the only city that I tell people to avoid at all cost. Yes there are some good parts but that is where criminals target for burglaries and car thefts. I agree with Dublin and Lafayette for good cities to move to but the other cities have trash rating for schools and/or have high crime rate. If you pick Dublin then why not Livemore or Fremont? Fremont has great schools, low crime and has TWO BART stations. It is also close enough to commute to the South Bay and the Pennisula.

@@tomevers6670 Doesn’t sound like you even read what the original commenter or myself even wrote.
Really Oakland???? I guess if you like drugs, crime, and homelessness
I hear your point @flipkoofx1137. But Oakland also has some beautiful parts and tons of great culture and diversity.
Fremont is probably one of the biggest and prominent city in the east bay. I’m surprised it stayed out of your list.
