Where is the King Center? I don't know San Mateo all that well from what I see Mateo is pretty nice east and west of elcamino all the way down to 101. Its kind of nasty lookin on the east side of 101 though while driving past it. Mateo is pretty big though and I havn't been every spot out there. Over by Chope Hospital seems kinda dingy
Redwood City is cool pretty much except parts of downtown and the east side by middlefield and fifth ave and by the target and by the lower end of Woodside road. Nortenos and the Surenos are always funking with eachother whenever i hear about anyone getting killed in redwood its usually over that shit. East of 101 is hella nasty by the trailer parks and the west side of 101 rollison is hella dirty too.
Menlo Park is hella nice for the most part, east menlo is hella small and the part thats bad is tiny Most of East Menlo is actually very nice.
East Palo Alto is still hella grimey eventhough they fixed it up by 101 so driving past it it looks nice as soon as you are past the Ikea and shit it still pretty much looks the same as it did out there from what i see. I Don't have alot of people in EPA but i have a friend who stays near the Dumbartan Bridge I think its The Ville if i remember my EPA geographics right. By Castanio elementary school
Regular Palo Alto is a beautiful city, I like to ride my bike up there I think they consider that santa clara county
San Carlos is nice, its got a kind of dirty looking industrial part but thats just cuz of the zoning nothing bad happens in San carlos really
Belmont is nice and they have super dickhead cops to keep it that way, If they find out you are from San Mateo or Redwood City they will most likley follow your ass outta town.
Burlingame
San Bruno
Millbrae
and up that way I don't know that much about but it seems nice everywhere i've seen aside from it looking industral and dirty by 101 and the train tracks
South City and daly City look pretty nice but I'm sure they probably get a little run off crime since they close to nasty parts of Frisco.
Everything else is offa 280 or the 1 and those little towns are usually pretty nice or extremly nice and house some of americas richest people like Woodside, Portola Valley, Hillsbourough etc. Then You have the beach towns that are nice I'd love to live in any of them, I love the beach
San Mateo County isn't that bad crime is gonna happen no matter what but i think they keep it under control for the most part out here. People try to blow their town outta porportion cuz they think it makes them cool and shit that shit is lame
