My Hometown
Hey José! How is it going? Even though I was born in Singapore and lived there for six years, I do not consider it to be my hometown. I think of San Mateo, California as my hometown because I have the most memories here. Although San Mateo is only a small suburb, there is a lot to do. Since the city isn’t too big, getting from one place to another does not take too long. I really like San Mateo because things are pretty calm and nothing particular happens. Compared to big cities like San Francisco, San Mateo has a low crime rate and is relatively clean. There is also a lot to do in downtown San Mateo. Because of our diverse city, there are many different types of restaurants. In addition to restaurants, there are also many different places to buy things. A few years ago, a movie theatre was built in the middle of downtown San Mateo so there are always a lot of people around the area. There is also a park near downtown San Mateo. There is a playground, a baseball field, and several barbeque pits at the park. Although there are a lot of things to do at the park, I rarely go to the park because there is rarely anything interesting that occurs there. That pretty much sums up what my hometown is like. How is your hometown?
