They have you sign up for paperless, but they don't send you ANY email correspondence…read more The customer service told me the email service has been messed up for a while, so why the hell would ypu have me sign up for it.

My husband and I opted to spend a few extra dollars a month and sign up for "green power". It feels good to be helping the environment. On the down side, it is simply unacceptable to have "Silicon Valley" in your name and not accept online payments. Their phone payment system is horribly cumbersome. I signed up for auto-payments by sending them a voided check, but it's been more than a month and it still hasn't processed. And unlike PG&E, they are strict about their due dates; you will be charged $5 for the first day it's overdue. It reminds me of the good old days of video rental.

Called in last week, no issues with the rep getting the information needed regarding extra usage…read more As our household spent the rest of the week figuring out where the extra water usage may be coming from, I had to call today to confirm usage for specific days at a specific time and the lady I spoke to today was so rude and snarky. I understand bad days but there's no reason for rudeness and being a "smart ass" for simple questions. Honestly whoever supervises that department should really reconsider some of these employees. Totally gives a bad image of ACWD and any help you need.

I personally have not had the chance to meet the new owners but the other week I came home from work to someone from their store delivering a 3gallon water jug to my elderly mother.

Well, living in Chemeketa Park I should hope I like the water company!…read more Even in this drought, we have clean water ready to use in our home. What's even better is the water is more on the alkaline side, so that means it's great for our health. They keep up up to date and well informed on whats going on in our neighborhood and the state of the water. I am glad we have a good water source for our little home in the mountains.

The Milpitas Public Library is pretty nice, and pretty busy. It is on the old town part under the…read moreEast Calaveras road, to the north a bit. It has a large parking lot/garage, with I think 2 - 3 floors, attached to the library building, which is really nice because it was always almost full, with people going in and out constantly, despite the Library itself not being that large. I met a client here, someone who lives in Milpitas and who reserved one of those private study rooms for us, the ones that most newer libraries have, which is a great thing for private meetings, study rooms, etc. They have several here. This central location makes it pretty convenient for most families and visitors, the large parking garage really encourages you to visit without waiting for parking. Visit you local public library!

Center of Silicon Valley [Santa Clara CA]…read more Home to Santa Clara University, Levi's Stadium, and California's Great America Theme Park, sadly the park will close at the end of this month, October 2025. We had happy childhood memories of running wild at Great America once. Santa Clara is also home to the headquarters of companies such as Intel, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), and Nvidia. I once worked at National Semiconductor Corporation, formerly headquartered in Santa Clara. I was employed there for 10 years, in 2011 they were acquired by Texas Instruments. While working that graveyard shift I also briefly attended Mission College. It was a tough schedule. I finally attended my first NFL game at Levi's Stadium when the Niners played against the Atlanta Falcons. It was a wild atmosphere as the Niners pulled a victory win. During our stay we discovered a restaurant serving a plethora of Filipino favorites. Can't wait to return to Tapsilog Cantina. 2026 will be an unprecedented year of major sports events in Santa Clara and the Bay Area. The City is thrilled to be the host venue, Levi's Stadium, as the region's sports fans welcome both Super Bowl LX and FIFA World Cup in 2026. Review #3949

Long overdue review…read more Quality/Quantity - Another one of my favorite cities. And if you do it right, you get the best of all worlds! City of Santa Clara's utilities (Silicon Valley Power) and Cupertino's school district! Back in the day, anything and everything you could ever want or need was just a 10 minute drive. Back in the day we had season tickets to - Great America, Bonfante Gardens, Monterey Aquarium, etc. Other things to do in SC: Of course they now have Levi Stadium, our 49ers from SF... Visiting missions/churches, so much history. Santa Clara University, museums, parks, SC convention center, Apple campus and visitor center, SJ airport, etc. And for my wife, 10 minutes away is the Valley Fair and Santana Row mall. We used to also have a Vallco shopping center, but that has changed significantly... Atmosphere - 18.3 square miles, of which none of it is water... Population 127K+ (2020 Census) Personally the weather is perfect for me, not too hot and not too cold. But then I am lucky to enjoy and appreciate all 4 climates. I used to love riding my bike (motorcycle) on 1, 9, 35, 84 and 130! Top employers - Applied Materials, Intel, AMD, Kaiser, Nvidia, CA Great America, Dell, etc. Nearby cities - San Jose, Cupertino, Sunnyvale, Milpitas, Mountain View, Saratoga, Los Gatos, and even Morgan Hill. Again, so close to everything! Approximately only an hour+ away, depending on traffic - SF, Half Moon Bay, Santa Cruz, Monterey, Carmel, Gilroy, etc. Service - Depends on what you do, eat, or drink. Price - Depends on what you do, eat, or drink. But affordable living for Silicon Valley. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1852.
