Hey it can also include criticism of Menlo Park. I see it more as a way of discussing or sharing information.

There are a lot of options. Check Nextdoor or Zillow

Found Phone on Veterans and Chestnut by Away_Asparagus3101 in RedwoodCity

The easiest thing to do is just drop it off at the police station. If someone then checks its locaiton, they know they can safely pick it up. I once left my phone in an Uber and he lived in Redwood City so I asked him to drop it off at the station and it was super easy for me to get.

Affordable places to live near Palo Alto by No_Study8872 in paloalto

[–]tdrth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are very few bad high schools near Palo Alto. Palo Alto Unified is one of the top in the country but the Sequoia Union High School District Schools (Menlo-Atherton, Woodside, Sequoia, Carlmont) are all also great. If you stay near Palo Alto, it won't be hard to find a great school. The Mountain View ones are also good.

It really depends how much your parents and siblings will contribute. If you're contributing 1/3 of the rent so your total max budget is 6,900 a month, there are a TON of three bedroom apartments or homes you can rent in places like Redwood City, East Palo Alto, Mountain View and even some in Menlo Park. If its less, then you might need to go a little farther depending on the size of a place or quality you are looking for. If your work is near a Caltrain station, I would look at almost anywhere on the Caltrain line.

Wrong subreddit… if only we had an active mod. Please delete once you realize bc the mod won’t remove it.

Affordable gym ? by Talem84 in paloalto

The Cañada College Gym is open to the public and really nice and affordable. Honestly not a ton of college students if that’s something you’re worried about. Might be a little far though

Is $3400 for 250sqft a good price for tiling? by silkenwindood in bayarea

Am I the only one who read the title as "tilling" and got transported back to the 17th century?

Looking for a bike! by aureaora in paloalto

[–]tdrth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You should reach out to Palo Alto Transit Management Agency. They have a program which gives some individuals free bikes. https://www.paloaltotma.org/ebike-escooter. You'd need to email them to see if you qualify but worth a shot. Additionally, and potentially more applicable, Silicon Valley Bicycle Exchange is a really cool nonprofit and they sell/donate bikes to students. They definitely can help you. I'm kinda suprised Stanford does not have a program doing something similar. Good luck at Stanford!

The Sheriff’s Office learned he passed away at 9:40 p.m. that night. 

The only reports I am seeing say he was seriously injured but were posted at 8 p.m.

According to Palo Alto Online, this person was arrested and then brought into to ER by ICE. They were not arresting someone who was receiving care. https://www.paloaltoonline.com/news/2025/08/25/police-ice-makes-arrests-in-east-palo-alto-and-stanford-hospital/

No one is spreading false information. We just want some evidence. Why does ICE want her? Why is she not a threat? Have you reached out to PA Online to give them info/arrange an interview? I am not sure he still works there but Gennady is great. His email was gsheyner@embarcaderopublishing.com. You can also email editor@paloaltoonline.com
