bro its fucking bad
36, almost 37 years in the east side & it has come to the point where I had to leave & an encouraging my mom to do the same.
hell, she lives next door to dairy belle on mckee & white ( which is now a taqueria, as if ESSJ needed any additional mexican food joints ) which is in the thick of it.
if you come back breh I HIGHLY suggest southside, or a suburb like campbell, los gatos, milpitas ( which is over ran by southsiders now ), or even santa clara or cupertino.
if you come back to SJ, i dont suggest ESSJ, downtown, or WSSJ.
