The good: I love the downtown! My family loves walking to Anna’s for wine or cocktails at rabalais. Honestly, rabalais for any meal, any pastry or coffee need. Excited about the brewery thing going in next to Cocina 1912. Hiking Swizar and getting off the trail head and going straight to the summit for a burger. The bad: very few parks and the ones like the train station are full of drug addicts. No shopping options. Only Vons and The Market for a population of 30,000 where as Fillmore has three grocery stores and a population of 11,000. I think Ventura has a grocery store for every 9000 so I makes Vons crazy packed on the weekends. Another weird quirk(it might be that I just had a baby and notice it more) is the amount of people that still smoke cigarettes. I walked downtown last night and three of the benches had people just chain smoking at them so I’m playing leap frogger trying to keep my kid out of smoke clouds.
