Leafy suburb offers options for commuters and families

The tree-filled suburb of Ygnacio Valley in Concord brings a blend of what commuters and families are looking for in the East Bay area. South of the industrial and commercial area that takes up part of the neighborhood, the residential area sits between an elementary school and Ygnacio Valley Park. Even though one side is bordered by BART rail tracks for ease of getting around the region, some families choose to stay close to home. “There are many families who have moved from Alameda County, around Oakland, here because the prices are lower and many people are working from home, and the commute doesn’t matter much anymore,” says Marina Donchishina, a Realtor with Compass with almost 10 years of experience. “You also have the bonus of great scenery with Mount Diablo nearby.”
