Monica • 3+ years in Alhambra
February 25, 2025I have been living in Alhambra over 7 years. It is a nice place to live. A lower cost for rent and had a nice store to shop near by. I very love it. A beautiful parks and a nice to see a natural. The best environment, peaceful and very safety. But now. It is the most higher cost to live, and I am not compare to Pasadena. It is too expensive to live here. The area nothing much, but a lot restaurants. It can't even say a diversity city. The main street not that many trees on the side walk. It makes the area so hot when there is no trees around the streets. Hope no more trees got cut down by the city.
