This particular neighborhood in Pleasant Hill, the Contra Costa Centre neighborhood, has some outstanding things about the way it looks and its way of life that are worth highlighting.
The types of households in a neighborhood can tell a lot about the character and lifestyle of those living here.

With a real estate vacancy rate of only 0.4%, the Contra Costa Centre neighborhood has a lower vacancy rate than 96.8% of U.S. neighborhoods, a very elite group. Such a low vacancy rate may indicate very strong real estate demand in the neighborhood combined with some impediments to increasing supply, such as zoning or existing density of development, among other potential reasons.

The freedom of moving to new places versus the comfort of home.
