I moved away in and every time I go back to Sunvalley I do notice a change, but I wouldn't say it's anymore dangerous than before. Some just might look that way and I agree with the other poster that said it's the dress code for a fair amount of people here. I've never seen prostitutes anywhere near there, Monument Blvd is the only place I can imagine them hanging out.
Many times though there was a homeless person or two hanging out at the NB off ramp or at one of the mall entrances, but it was not that bad or much worse than a lot of other places I've been over CA. Even wealthy places like La Jolla will have homeless people at intersections by freeway off ramps. Concord is middle to lower middle class with some nicer sections here and there. It's not that bad overall and has a pretty low crime rate overall, lower than other Bay Area suburbs with better reputations.
Growing up in Walnut Creek I'll admit we can be snobs and generally looked down on Concord. Outside some dumpy parts in and around Monument Blvd most of Concord is just typical middle class suburbia, nothing to write home about but nothing to be that afraid of either.
The OP is over the top. Complete exaggeration by the OP. Definitely calling BS on the four hookers hanging on an off ramp in Concord. Another hate-and-run thread by batransplant.
