Wondering if there are any specific vendors at the South Pas Farmer’s Market that are recommended. Looking generally for veggies/fruit vendors but who are your faves?

Hi! I’ve been making my espresso at home and I want to continue buying local beans. Any recommendations on your favorite local cafes?

Totally dropped the ball on planning summer 😬 Are there still decent camps available this late or do most of the good ones fill up early? Any tips for finding spots last minute?

hi all! moving to sopas soon and am debating between two locations. one is super close to the 110 (like 50ft), the other is on huntington drive near fremont. I know neither probably has stellar air quality, but I was wondering if anybody has any insight on which place might see less pollution/noise, or are they roughly the same. thanks in advance!

Hi, prospective resident here and hoping to get some insight from people living near the LRT station. Do you find it useful at all? Just looking on paper it seems like it could be helpful for leisure trips to DT/Little Tokyo/Chinatown...other points of interest for me would be Highland Park and Pasadena for nights out and Arcadia for Asian food. But would I realistically ever take it for any of those close in places over just driving myself? And far less likely if there are 2-4 of us traveling, right?

I could also see going to Pomona to visit my cousin/nephew in Claremont area, but only if they were gonna be coming to pick me up and drop me off. Again, more limited in scope.

Lastly, would it be useful for tweens/young teens to get around on their own? Would you let your kids travel on their own via the A Line or is it not safe enough? Thanks!

Any of you guys moved on from Spectrum? If so, what internet service are you using? Spectrum wants to charge me $110/month for 1000mbps.

We will be stopping by in July to check out South Pas with the idea of potentially moving in a couple of years. Kids are 10&8. What do you recommend that we see/do to get a feel for the neighborhood?

We’re interested in South Pas for the good schools and the walkability so would be mostly focused on the central area roughly from the middle school up to Mission and over to the light rail station.

Thanks for any tips and advice!
