    Personally, I prefer single family homes not affiliated with any homeowner associations. Those condos and townhomes are beautiful and all; but expensive. And I imagine there will be uncontrollable, unforeseeable, 'dramatic' increases in hoa fees. It would be interesting if you'ld interview the owners who live in those properties.

    The horizontal wood paneling in the second home makes many of the rooms look smaller than they probably are. The exterior/entryway looks more mobile-home-esque than MCM.

    Carmel has one of California's best beaches and it's dog friendly. The sand is super fine, the water is clear and cold along with a kelp forest just off the beach. Dolphins, sea lions, otters, and marine birds are sighted here frequently. Carmel arguably has one of the nicest downtowns in California. It's quaint, devoid of chain stores and fast food restaurants. An abundance of very nice restaurants. Expensive choice of restaurants but great small intimate coffee shops. Tourist traffic is a bit much during the summer months but fall thru spring is beautiful and quiet. Most of Carmel residents live here as a second or third home. If you can connect with the locals you won't be disappointed as people are very interesting, well educated, and bring a lifetime of interesting experiences. The population is older which may limit your social life. There is world class golf within 10 minutes including Pebble Beach and several others. Be prepared to pay. Contrary to this video you would be lucky to find a house or condo under $1.5 million. Bonus is Carmel's proximity to Big Sur, great hiking in the local mountains, and a love for the outdoors shared by many of Carmel's residents.

    Concerned about the lack of transit. I hate driving, & having to use a car to go anywhere. Its great that there is plenty of new construction, & low income housing, but all it does is add more traffic congestion, which increases travel times. It looks like it could be bike friendly.

    Another great walking tour video. I've done daily walks along some of what I saw in this video, like around El Estero Park and along Alvarado... I lived just 3 blocks up the hill toward the military facility... that would make a good video in the future... I lived in the apt. complex at 501 Ocean ave... there are a lot of apartment buildings up in that area... perhaps a short walk around those communities?? I frequented all the coffee places within walking distance and sometimes even got coffee in Pacific Grove along that route.

    I lived in Monterey in 1987/88. Clint Eastwood was mayor of Carmel at that time. 12 of us hung out at the Carmel city hall just to meet him. After a week a cop came out. And graciously told us the Mayor was going in and out of the building thru a back entrance and he wasn't meeting anyone. We went home feeling jipped. But we got some autographed photos in the mail a month later the cop took care to make sure we got something for our time and for being in the military
