I have lived in Fremont since the 1970's, and have seen so many changes since then. If you're a young outgoing person, you will probably find Fremont painfully boring. On the other hand, it's a good place to raise a family if you can afford it. Fremont's cost of living is quite high. Back in the day, Fremont was always an affordable suburb, but nowadays it's overpriced. The population has grown tremendously in the last 10 years to the point that it's very crowded on the streets, supermarkets, shopping centers. The DMV in Fremont is ridiculously crowded! The laid back feel that Fremont always had has given way to densification. More and more high density condos are being built all over Fremont. Crime is still relatively low. The schools are generally good, but they are overcrowded and children sometimes get placed in schools outside of the attendance area. The 2 BART stations provide an easy way to commute to other Bay cities or to take it to San Francisco for real attractions/nightlife. Bottom line, Fremont is ok. The overall quality of living has slipped since it's peak days(pre 2000). It's become too crowded and expensive--and,there are a lot more homeless in Fremont.

Crime in Fremont? My family and I are expecting to move to Fremont in the next year or so. It looks pretty nice, but I've come across some posts about gang activity in the city that don't seem to jive with the fairly low crime statistics. I'm guessing crime is very localized or the posts are exaggerated. Can any residents clue me in on areas where we shouldn't be looking …
