Pleasant Hill Living
Pleasant
Hill is still a small "old fashioned" community located on
Interstate 680 between Walnut Creek and Concord in the greater
San Francisco Bay Region. It is a real tight-knit community
where it isn't unusual to see a city council member attending
a community get together or the Public Services Superintendent
painting graffiti off walls on a Saturday.
The
city’s can do attitude is reflected in the newly refurbished
downtown....
.....
that features new shops and restaurants, a new Marriott
Hotel, a state-of-the-art entertainment center, landscaping, real
estate and infrastructure improvements.
Pleasant
Hill features a mix of older and newer real estate options
within its communities. Sherman Acres, a real lovely,
tree-lined neighborhood is one of the oldest developments in
the area, but truly reflects the spirit of the city. Moms
pushing baby strollers and kids riding bikes in front of.....
.....their homes are frequently sighted. Neighbors know each
other and watch out for each other. The real pride felt for
the neighborhood can be seen in people's yards, especially in
the springtime.
