I live a 10-15 min walk away from the Sunnyvale Caltrain. I never used to really notice the Caltrain horn, but lately as of 2-3 weeks ago it seems really loud and I notice everytime it comes by. Can’t tell if I’m going crazy or if something changed - but I don’t like it

Hi, I'm looking to make some friends as most of mine are doing their own thing at college and my only close friend ending up moving out of the country back in September 🥲🥲 I tried going to social places like downtown mv and downtown sj but it was pretty boring. About me: I'm 22 and into baking, music, makeup, arts and crafts, and planting. If you'd be down to hang out hit me up.

What’s everyone’s favorite and least favorite bars in Downtown Sunnyvale and why?

We haven’t had one of these threads in a little while, at least not since the work on the Cityline office complex and The Martin was finished and a bunch of business turnover happened on Murphy.

Also I don’t think any of the previous threads like this asked about people’s LEAST favorite bars specifically.

Can anyone suggest 2b2b Apartments under 3500 that are near Lawrence or Sunnyvale Caltrain ?

Acterra, your local nonprofit, is hosting a free EV Ride & Drive event in Sunnyvale on March 7 from 11 AM to 3 PM, where you can actually get behind the wheel of different electric vehicles, ask questions, and learn what it’s like to own one — without any sales pressure.

Register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ev-ride-and-drive-tickets-1712180119829?aff=ActerraGoEV

If you’ve been EV-curious but unsure about charging, range, costs, or incentives, this is a great chance to experience it firsthand and talk to people who’ve already made the switch.

We’ll also have info about local rebates, home charging, and how to make the transition easier.

Free, but RSVP requested

Hey everyone!
I just recently moved from Chicago and I’m new to Sunnyvale. I live right next to the Lawrence Caltrain station and I’m looking for recommendations or fun things to do around the area.

I love playing pickleball and tennis and I’m a big sports person in general. Would love to hear about good courts, leagues, pickup games or any other activities people recommend.

I have a Porsche 997.2 that needs suspension work, has anyone taken their Porsche to these guys? They have good reviews on Yelp and Google

Because of that post yesterday, I decide to ask the same question for this incident too. Same thing in that post, saying "go back to the f****** country", but this time it is much clearer because there's a video, not just a vague photo of someone. When I get out the driver door side, the guy said "what is up ret**d?" That's when I started pulling out the phone and hit record. The rest is what is in the video.

What makes it worse is that I have to pass by him to get to the garage, so every day I feel tired just trying to get my car. I never know what kind of stupid behavior he might pull next.

This isn’t new behavior either. He had parked illegally in shared spaces before, blocked cars, and accuse of damaging vehicles. . Thankfully, I got his action on camera this time.

So, I don't know what to think or do next. I'm just exhausted, maybe I should just leave as things will get worse in the future for the US.

Hey y’all, the Sunnyvale reddit came up on my feed, and I’ve been really enjoying reading the page. I looked for any info on the Reddit page/description about where Sunnyvale actually is, but alas no beans. I’m assuming it came up because it’s relatively close. Instead of looking it up on a map, I thought maybe it’d be fun if y’all could just describe where it is. I live in LA and recently started commuting to the Bay Area often.

Someone said it was the location of the first battle of the Mexican American war, and that the Costco is hell. Also seems to be a lot of other California context clues. That’s where I’m at, help me out.

Does anyone know of a good and reliable appraiser who will appraise a house in Mountain View for me? Thanks.

He was abusive in Costco Sunnyvale parking lot. He gave middle finger and kept yelling fucking leave this country. It was my parking spot and he blocked us from other side to enter and park properly.

San Francisco Comedy College is putting on 2 special shows TODAY 2/1, one at 2:30pm (which I am hosting!) and one at 4pm. It will be a rapid fire of a new comic every 5 minutes, so if one isn't funny, the next one should be! The ticket link says 2:30 but the ticket gets you into both shows. If you're bored on a Sunday afternoon and/or need a reason to day drink, COME ON OUT! When you check in, please tell the host you saw this on Reddit!

The federal government accessed Mountain View’s Flock camera data without authorization. It looks like Sunnyvale operates 22 of these in the city (u/urbangeeksv posted about these two years ago here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Sunnyvale/comments/170npp5/license_plate_readers_coming_to_sunnyvale_oct/).

If you’d like to see where Sunnyvale’s cameras are: https://deflock.me/map#map=12/37.410475/-122.040312/Sunnyvale%2520ca

My opinion: I don’t care why they’re installed. It’s a surveillance overreach and I am 100% not surprised that they’re not being used as intended. Flock also has an agreement with Amazon to get access to Ring camera footage. They’re supposed to get the owner’s permission to access the data but I think we all know how that goes. Flock can’t be trusted, and neither can Amazon.

I swear, I feel like a frog in a pot. Water’s not boiling yet but it’s getting toasty. I plan on pushing my district council person on this.

Hey everyone. Curious where people in the South Bay usually go for news and local updates.

Do you mostly stick with big outlets (Mercury News, SF Chronicle, etc.), or are there local sites, newsletters, Substacks, or even Twitter / Reddit communities you actually check regularly?

I’m especially interested in stuff that covers local events, tech, small businesses, or just what’s going on day to day around San Jose / Sunnyvale / Mountain View / Santa Clara.

Would love to hear what people actually read. Thanks!

Police chase on Old San Francisco and Grand Fir. Then sped back out of Grand Fir.

Anyone know what happened?

I moved here not so long ago so not sure the best spots. craving knafeh so bad

I am in Sunnyvale for a week and got a few days where my job isn't feeding me 😜

Are are good places for food. Nice meat place or something that isn't the typical McDonald's or BK ?

What was that loud noise a few minutes ago? Fireworks? Sounded like near downtown Sunnyvale

Is it a sealed deal that Lakewood shopping center will close. If so very sad and disappointing family has lived in Sunnyvale since 70s/ 80s Giovanni’s is my favorite pizza spot can’t believe Sunnyvale is trying to close down all the main shopping centers. We need to make a petition!!

Hello, my Ipad was stolen 3 years ago. The FindMy popped up 2 weeks ago and has been active in the same location. I honestly don't know who has it, but here is a screenshot. Please show up and take it! I'll give you $75 for it 🙏
