Farther from the bay means cooler nights, wetter winters in the canyons, and longer response distances for every trade. Properties near the Big Basin corridor (closed for recovery, but neighborhoods remain) and along Jamie Lane or Bear Creek Road have access constraints trucks and backhoes need to plan around.
