What is the Dublin, CA area like?

Question

We are thinking of buying a Toll Brothers condo in the Dublin, CA area. We are a couple in our mid twenties. What is this area like? What are the demographics? Crime? Section 8 housing? Future of Dublin?

Answer 1

I have only visited there a couple of times, but it seems to be growing.  I personally like the area.  There are many good companies to work for there.  

Answer 2

Lots of apartments, high crime for the area, LOTS of section 8 housing.    There is also three or four large "projects" neighborhoods.

The movie theater is the only redeeming quality.

If you want decent housing or are thinking about kids you need to go for Pleasanton, Livermore or San Ramon.

Dublin is the "low income" town of that valley, with many residents shipped there from Oakland (same county) by the welfare department.

That other poster has Dublin and Pleasanton confused, the "lots of good companies" is Pleasanton and San Ramon.
