    I'm sure that the Mt View SSI office is helpful and offers good service but what if you can't leave…read morethe house? The SSA.gov website is utterly useless - it's virtually impossible to log in! Trying is utterly useless with the login.gov and ID.me - there's no way to look up my records or copy information about my SSI payments. Why is this true?

    The reviews I read prior to picking this location and not only it being  in close proximity to my…read morehome, gave me reassurance that today was a good day to do this, day after a holiday. Mid morning. What was said in a review about that short and  tatted Asian guy "guarding" the front was on point. Rude and no personality. I definitely did not like the impression I got from him.  Sorry for confirming about checking in bc I was lost coming in as my first time here. Get a new job elsewhere if you're miserable here! Misery does not need company!  After checking in at the self serve kiosk next to the guard by the entrance-- I sat for about 3 mins, enough to notice about 4 other persons sitting or being helped in front of me. Then I got called in to window number 3 and the admin was personable and professional compared to the guard. It helped I completed my application online and got my receipt for a Social Security card renewal. (To be received in the mail in about 2 weeks). Total time of assistance was under 5 mins. Thank you Lance! P.S. Lance said it hasn't been busy lately, FYI! Small parking lot shared with the VA.

    Quality/Quantity - High rating as we had so many good memories here. And good to always come back…read moreto the "old" neighborhood. Some fun facts from the internet: "Named Sunnyvale as it is located in a sunny region adjacent to areas with significantly more fog." "Sunnyvale is one of the few municipalities in California to have a single unified Department of Public Safety, where all personnel are trained as firefighters, police officers, and EMTs, so that they can respond to an emergency in any of the three roles." "Sunnyvale is the birthplace of the video game industry, former location of Atari headquarters." (Am I outdating myself, lol). Things to do in Sunnyvale: Farmers markets, parks/trails, "Murphy Ave," etc. Atmosphere - 22.78 square miles, 0.72 of which is water. Population = Almost 156k (2020 US Census). Next to/near San Jose, Saratoga, Santa Clara, Cupertino, Los Gatos, Los Altos, Mountain View, Milpitas, etc. Approximately an hour to San Francisco, Oakland, Gilroy, Santa Cruz, etc. Home to: Apple, LinkedIn, Google, Amazon, Meta (Facebook), Walmart Labs, 23 and Me, etc. Service - Good. Also depends on what you do, eat, or drink. Price - Reasonable. Something for everyone. Also depends on what you do, eat, or drink. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1912.

    Sunnyvale is a terrible city now. The quality of life is extremely low. Neighbors are constantly…read moretrespassing, competing, and throwing shady looks. Public shaming has become extremely bad and a huge issue. No matter where you go, people will throw passive aggressive jabs even for asking a simple question that can in no common sense way be considered offensive. I've also endured a lot of racist and judgmental interactions by minorities, which I think is pretty hypocritical. It's like no one has any decency or a sense of civility anymore. Every time I go outside my house I am getting traumatized over and over again by reckless drivers, rude employees in stores and medical offices, and pretty much any interaction you can think of. I get laughed at by random strangers who literally don't know how to mind their own business. It feels like I'm getting mobbed.

    This place used to be OK. But I will never go there again. When you approach the desk and greet the…read moreworkers (all of them) they never answer back unless you are caucasian. I believe they are all racists. If you want to be treated badly, rudely, mockingly, and inappropriately, and never helpfully. Then you have to come to this miserable post office.

    I have never written a Yelp review and didn't think I would ever write one about a post office. I…read morehave had okay experiences here in the past, but today had a different person helping me--a more senior woman with glasses who was incredibly condescending and rude, to me and to every other customer I heard her interact with. It didn't help that all other customers, including me, were people of color and this woman was Caucasian. One example was when I asked, "Could I add tracking to this package?" and she snapped back, "What do you think this is?" I also overheard this exchange between a different customer service rep and a customer next to me: "Where is this package going?" "To China." "Of COURSE it is." It's a sunny 77 degrees on a Saturday afternoon and you're supposed to be providing customer service. This simple trip to the post office left me with such a negative feeling because of the interactions I experienced in 15 minutes--condescending, aggressive, with racial undertones. Not fun.
