Thanks for the insight.

Affordable doesn’t exist in Glendale, CA nice try

I can’t watch any negative vids on my beloved Pasadena but I appreciate as your balance of positive negatives gives reality 100 to anyone considering moving here just for the assumed perception Keep doing U bro for one and all!

May be moving there with my then husband! I’m nervous cause we would be newly married, plus paying for University (just him) and I’m worried we won’t be able to find a place we can afford to stay, so I really appreciate these videos getting me more familiar with Pasadena! I’ve only lived along the East Coast of the US.

Make sure you have a San Marino business license, realtors! 😂

I stay away from Glendale because it's infested with shady Armenians that lease expensive cars but live in shitty apartments with their parents.

Sad to know this neighborhood has turned into gentrification, a weird word to describe corruption and invasion from foreigners that no idea where their money is coming from. Greedy owners to make money out of the expense of family members that dont want any of that craziness. I'm sure corruption is involved.

Pro# 3, diverse culture and food, is easy to overlook. I lived in Pasadena for about 9 years and was impressed with its demographics. There’s a diverse population with highly educated younger professionals. In my last condo building in Pasadena we had engineers, lawyers, people in the medical field etc. The city also promotes an active lifestyle. Walking for exercise and leisure is common. I just moved to San Dimas and while I landed in an area with a great public school system and many shops, I’m in more of a suburban environment. My wife and I were walking around the neighborhood and we got what seemed to be puzzled looks lol. Also the demographics in my new neighborhood are more working class people that got into the neighborhood when it was more affordable and the area became affluent around them. Pros and cons but I definitely miss Pasadena!

Halloween 1978 was filmed in South Pasadena!

I hope Airbnb gets banned here like it is in NYC. We don’t need people trying to make profit off of 50 properties when we have a housing crisis. Properties should only be for living in. Period.

Another con of Pasadena California is HOA property.

Kevin, how much this house was sold for? Clarence

Amazing job

The crime rate in San Marino will not remain low for too much longer. The same thing will happen like what has happened in Arcadia, and elsewhere.😮😢.

I love south Pasadena 🎉❤

Excellent video, information and commentary!

Oh yah, lived in Sierra Madre for years when my kids were young. Beautiful. People now don't seem to like small houses like we had back then.

I grew up in La Canada in the 60s....what a change.

I used to live in San Mario as kid, when my dad was posted there for 3 years with the bank. I attended Valentines school and I remember it having an amazing community vide. Amazing place to live and I have so many fond memories. Shame I had to move back to the U.K! Would love to move back there one day if I can ever afford to do so!

well done!

Mention the old homes here. Vast majority are from much earlier than what was stated: 1880’s to 1930’s, with an active group of preservationists assisting old homes with guidance on repair and respecting the original history of the homes. Library archives have extensive info filed by address.

Arcadia has a lot of large houses and many are empty 🤔. So many newly built huge house and just not used. BTW, the city has amazing landscaping!

San Marino is BEAUTIFUL! I’ve always wanted to live there ever since I saw Father of The Bride movie!🤩

I grew up in Arcadia in the mid 1940s to early 1960s. I lived on Lemon Ave between Holly and El Monte. Our back fence wad down what would now be the center of Sharon Road. We had a lot of fruit trees in that huge back yard. A lot of people raised chickens, rabbits, mink, chinchilla etc. Some kept horses. Champion jockey Johnny Longden lived on that street, as well as 1952 Miss America Coleen Hutchins. The Hutchins house was on two lots, with a 200 foot frontage and about 400 feet deep. There are now four large mansions on that lot counting two on Wisteria. I do not think there were any Asians at all living in Arcadia back then. I haven't been in Arcadia since about 1974. Interesting video Kevin!

Promo-SM 😠

I thought you were a masc lesbian in the thumbnail

Nice job

my right ear loved it.

❤

I had a client in San Marion for 10 years! I was not familiar, with it before that! I love it! If I could it would be one of my first choices to live!

Media district! I grew up on Clark Avenue close to Verdugo. Great neighborhoods.

We moved to San Marino in 1974 and raised our children there. We got priced out back then while looking in Arcadia and found a super San Marino home with 3 bedrooms, 3 baths home for $55,000.00. That same home is now about 2 million..... You probably won't move there and have children unless you have several millions in your water cooled check book. Good luck finding 20 something couples with little kids moving here. It is still a lovely quiet city with easy access as Mr. Kuo describes. Traffic can be daunting especially in the morning rides to work. The wide divide down Huntington Drive is what's left of the old Pacific Electric right of way. They were a type of trolley system called the "Red Cars." San Marino does have interesting history, General Patton had a home about 4 blocks north of this one. San Marino has a mystique that neighboring cities love to hate. If you can afford it, it's a great place we once called home...

Thank you for this! Downtown Pasedena near Parke St? What do you think.

Good vid explaining the differences between the cities nice homes in the San Marino as well.In Melbourne we have separate city councils as well granted not as big as the L.A sprawl but they are just classed as suburbs as they fit into the city footprint. I think the founders of Los Angeles just liked naming things.

$500K-$600K for an entry level condo? 😧😳🙄 hard pass.

This is so helpful. Thank you 😊

Was born in Pasadena and went to Alhambra High in the 70’s and 80’s. Got out of there just in time. All of my favorite restaurants have Asian writing and skinned ducks hanging in the windows now.

The bears be chilling in local swimming pools with drinks? 🍹 🐻😂

85%of the population is married… welp! So much for finding a husband of my own! 😂

My cousin keeps trying to get me to move there.

Looks more prestigious than most of the rest of the world.

Hello my friend sub done

Great

High prices are not worth it for a 2 bedroom.

The former Vons turned into a Trader Joe’s. The one near or go grove has switched locations.

Something that I, as a musician, worry about is the issue of sound, if there really is an isolated finish that allows me to work and practice without disturbing the neighbors, is this the case?
