I found multiple open tables on that Wednesday afternoon. It wasn't a completely silent area, but it wasn't loud enough to distract me from working. There were outlets on the table, and the Wi-fi was pretty fast and reliable! There's plenty of parking in their designated parking lot. The restrooms were pretty clean and are located near the front when you enter the building. If I ever need to be in the area again, this would be my go-to study/work spot!

I tried the Cafe located in the Livermore library and was sadly disappointed. I was appalled by how…read moreridiculous the prices were for a tiny two bites worth of a sandwich and it was simple in taste nothing special. They also charge absurd prices for bottled/ Canned drinks sold much cheaper at your local gas station. You can easily spend close to $40 for two people and the portions are small to say the least. Not worth it if you're hungry and want a good filling meal. Love the library portion, the Cafe is a hard pass.

The children's section is good sized and colorful. There's a good amount of books and half a dozen computers for kids to learn and play on. Next to the kids area is the community room which was having a Friends of the Library sale, everything was 5 for $1! The selection was big, but the items all quite dated or not really the besr stuff, hence the price hehe. The rest of the library is pretty big too, the adult section is large, I didn't see a teens section but it was probably there. Tons of natural light from the windows up high in the main section. It's a quiet and serene place to read and relax. Only thing is the bathrooms could only be accessed by asking the security guard lady to open it for 1 person to use at a time, 15 minute time limit. But they were clean for that reason, not allowing for open access. Overall, this is a decently good library in Tracy that's part of the San Joaquin-Stockton library system.

Who doesn't love libraries?!…read more This library is our favorite! It is kept clean, organized, and have a wide variety of children's books to choose from. Staff and volunteers are always helpful. As other libraries, this branch also offer self-checkouts and easy drop offs. They they also offer automatic extension for borrowed items and you can also put books on hold if you are waiting on a specific one. I also had a privilege of using one of the conference rooms with other mom friends to help our kids with their homework. Parking is ample and is located in downtown Brentwood, so you can also shop, eat, play and walk around after. If you also want to support the library, one way is to check out their second hand books on the second floor or donate books as well.

Driving through Mountain House, one of the things that stands out is the modernization of the area. You don't really find vintage businesses or historical sites, which hints that this area must of sprouted from vasts of rural land recently developed perhaps in the last few years. It certainly has great potential and opportunity for growth. The only surprise, which honestly shouldn't be, is the skyrocketing real estate prices on the recently built homes in this area. Other than that, it's a nice place to stop by on your way to Tracy.

if you like high prices, high taxes, sometimes high HOA charges, paying for schools to be built on…read moreevery single freaking corner, 5 dirty, smelly gas stations within less than 2 miles of each other no real industry, no business park (like TRIMARK promised), acres, and acres of apartments that choke the beautiful country horizon; which weren't a part of the original plan, and now high crimes & theft in our neighborhoods, by all means move to MH. I'm not surprised about the increase in thefts because when you build a 24 hour expensive Safeway w/a gas station there's bound to be crime just around the corner. My trigger is when the mountain house service department at the time decided to tow my brand new truck and trailer. MH was not a city until it became effective in July 2024. My trigger took place a month before that when I was towed from an area across the street from the park. There are no parking signs & no tow away signs. It's open to the public & people park there day and night walking their dogs running doing whatever they do but on this date when I was towed, I was told that the reason it was towed was because the street was owned by a HOA. The county sheriff condoned the whole incident via TELEPHONE between MH officials & the county sheriffs department. The county sheriffs department then backtracked when I confronted them and said they had nothing to do with it because it was a HOA thing. Well I was confused, because I've been here since 2006 & I hadn't realized that the public street sidewalk and grass area by the creek and park were owned by a HOA. I must've been confused about where my tax money was going and the number of public servants that run around mountain house and the park area in particular cleaning and working on it. And to boot the tow company took a picture of my vehicle and my trailer & not one sticker & not one citation was visible on either vehicle . Yet when I picked up my vehicle from the tow yard it was lit up like a Christmas tree with green stickers on every side, white citations on every side of the vehicle and the trailer. But the picture that they took looked like a trophy picture. I'd only had my vehicle there for 4 days. I was getting ready for a trip so I was cleaning and storing things in it. So, when they took the vehicles they actually took all my items with it; every expensive thing that I use when I travel. I've never been so violated in my life!!!! As I explained to the Sheriffs , that if the HOA indeed owned this street & adjacent sidewalks and it's private property then where are the sign postings. People shouldn't be confused about whether their vehicle has been stolen or even where it's been stored. There are laws about this . Again, the county sheriffs department washed their hands of it said we know nothing about that, "WE didn't do it". The wonderful thing about living in a neighborhood is that you want to feel safe and secure. When the policies and procedures start to turn on me, I feel immense distrust in the public servants of this community . The "lets make it up as we go, cover for one another, & make lots if money even if rules need to bend" policies and procedures just don't work for me. We simply don't share the same values . It's kind of like having cancer. I just don't appreciate being manipulated by predatory like businesses and lied to by public officials that get paid because I pay my taxes. I don't think I deserve this as I pay a lot of taxes to stay here. So, I've decided to lease my place & move elsewhere because having life, liberty, and happiness in my neighborhood means more to me than anything else!
