    What can we really say about Fremont other than...It's Fremont. I went to Azevada elementary school…read morefor several years in my former/younger life here. If you're not over 40, we didn't go there at the same time. lol I have fond memories of fremont from my youth, that include The Fremont Hub, NewPark mall, and a lot more...but it's very different today. I've noticed it's become less diverse and a lot different. Still a cool place to visit, not the hub of entertainment, but safe and quiet for the most part. It has a beautiful landscape as most cities in the bay that run along the foothills and bodies of water at the same time.

    Fremont is a dump, with leadership that doesn't give a damn about the residents. The mayor, Raj…read moreSalwan, is only good to take pictures in front of "grand openings," but when it comes to doing actual work or to respond to residents, he can't be bothered. The city leadership and mayors have been awful for years and thanks to these losers, Fremont has nothing to offer. Restaurants suck, there's absolutely NO shopping for clothing (unless you like misfit crap from Ross or Marshall's), and no activities for families. The city is dirty, has overgrown weeds everywhere, and don't even get me started on that eyesore off of 680 by Auto Mall Parkway. What is that abandoned mess all about?? Why are there all these green lanes for the 2 bike riders in Fremont?? And what's with the no-right-turn curbs everywhere??! it's claustrophobic and unsafe...you can't get out of the way for emergency vehicles! I've lived here long enough to know nothing will change because the leadership doesn't care. As long as they don't have to look at it from their mansions and they are getting paid, nothing to see here!

    This is a review for my experience in renewing my driver license to a "real" ID. It was a very easy…read moreand smooth process. If you apply online and bring the recommended documents, it speeds up the process. It took about 15 minutes without an appointment for completing the vision test, receiving the interim license, and getting a photo taken. Tip: Apply online and go when they open to avoid long wait times. There was no line when I went around 8am on a Tuesday.

    I would like to bring to your attention an issue we experienced during our visit to the DMV on…read moreMarch 6, 2026, around 3:50 PM. The employee who was distributing ticket numbers at the front desk was unfortunately very rude and dismissive toward us and several other visitors. When we approached the appointment line, she did not acknowledge us. When security informed her that we were present for our scheduled appointment on time, she told the security officer to "zip it" and continued to ignore us. When she refused to issue our appointment ticket, I politely asked what the process would be to schedule another appointment. At that point, she told us that we were "annoying" and asked us to get out of her face. The security officer, who had witnessed the interaction, kindly allowed us to enter the shorter indoor line because she felt we had been treated unfairly. When we eventually reached the same employee again to obtain our ticket, she spent several minutes berading us insisting that we did not have the required documents and repeatedly told us to go home and return another day. I explained that I had spoken with a DMV representative on the phone beforehand and was told that all documentation was already on file and that we only needed to bring our ID. Despite this explanation, she continued to dismiss us and used disrespectful language toward us. After several minutes of dismissing us and telling us that we were wasting our time and hers, she finally issued our ticket. When we were called to the service counter, the DMV representative simply checked our ID and informed us that our driver's license would arrive in a few weeks. The process itself was straightforward once we reached the counter. I would like to note that the security officer and the DMV representative who assisted us were both polite, helpful, and professional, and we truly appreciated their assistance. Unfortunately, the initial interaction at the front desk delayed our visit significantly and created a very negative experience. I respectfully ask that management review this situation. The individual responsible for greeting customers and distributing tickets is often the first point of contact for visitors, and it is important that this role be handled by someone who treats the public with professionalism, respect, and courtesy. We understand that the DMV can be a busy and stressful environment, but visitors also take time out of their day to attend their appointments. We hope that in the future this position can be staffed by someone who is knowledgeable and courteous to the public.

    Neighboring the old Elephant Bar, Chili's and just across from the popular Brunch spot Bill's Cafe…read morestands this historic building. Surrounding the old house is a Victorian garden with beautifully shaped boxwood hedges and the paved plaza with lots of seating areas. Bird of Paradise and some well taken care of lawn also present. Seems like the city of Fremont was given this house years back and it has been a long time since they put any money into it. I'd like to see some more life put into it beside the odd homeless sleeping on the porch. Maybe your getting new tires at Americas Best or perhaps your lady friend is digging through piles of junk at Ross and you'd rather hang out with the homeless here than watch her... Tons of parking as the strip mall is also a neighbor. If your in the area explore a little but don't make a special trip for this spot.

The park is small and somewhat clean with not much to it except for a couple benches, a drinking fountain, and homeless people sleeping around it. It's not a one star because besides the homeless people and uninviting house the area is not bad and I like the quietness mixed with the sound of cars driving by. If it was cleaned up I'm sure more people would come by.
