Quiet And Wealthy Residential Areas 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) Living in San Marino, CA was very fast paced and a little stressful. I say stressful and past paced because of the cost of living. Living here was very expensive. The cost of living only continues to grow. My family and I had to work twice as hard to make it out here. This city i ...Read More s a very beautiful place to live because of all of the diversity and entertainment locations. I would love to have lived here longer, but we couldn’t afford the rise in cost of living expenses.

The best places in San Marino, CA was the residential areas. There are beautiful homes and very safe neighborhoods. There was a lot of White and Asians here primarily. Not a lot of nightlife offered for people to mingle and have drinks, but again this city was quiet and peaceful. The weather was overall pretty nice, lots of nice sunny days. The weather in Summer can get warm but very tolerable compared to other cities that I have lived in. Read Less
