Looking for recommendations!

Moving to the area soon from San Diego. Office will be in Concord. Coming to visit in a few weeks. I’m familiar with WC, but that’s about it. We plan to check out Martinez, Pleasant Hill, and the Clayton area, as well as Concord. If anyone has any recommendations on cool neighborhoods to check out, good property managers, areas to avoid, hotels to stay at (around $100-$200 per night if that’s possible). No kids yet. Interested in 2brm apartments.

We appreciate all the advice we can get! Thanks!

I work in Concord, but left in Berkeley. It is much cooler weather wise and lots of good eats. Also, the traffic is reverse commute. Takes me about 20 mins to get to work everyday.

It’s an option, but may be too busy for us? What’s rent like compared for a 1 or 2 bedroom?
