We moved to tracy two months ago from austin and really finding it hard to adjust as a family. I work in the bay so my commute is long, good part is i have to drive only 2 days rest of them is WFH.

My 3 kids are finding it very hard especially my second son and younger daughter who are in public elementary, every other week they catch a flu, have been to urgent care a number of times, my second one has cough almost every other day the doc says it could be allergies and he is on zyrtec for a month now. this has never happened ever to him he is a healthy child , i dont know if its tracy weather thats doing it. also public schools arent that great he gets bullied ,i complained they almost do nothing about it, At this point my wife is frustrated with all the sickness as she is on toes round the clock caring for them. she says the move has been like hell to her. am not sure what to do at this point. Kids dont have many friends here i guess community here is tight. is my move to tracy wrong. why is this illness happening every other week. House doesnt have mold its a new contruction. at this point am considering moving out , any suggestions would help especially who moved to tracy and settled. I dont want my family to go through this especially my kids and wife who is putting through so much

Hi, all. I moved to the Modesto area two weeks ago from Sacramento, which has gotten to be entirely too expensive, and IMO is now a giant shithole. Anyway, I’m transferring to the Tracy post office for work, and know nothing about it, but it was the only office in the area that had an opening, saving me from commuting from Modesto to Auburn every day, nearly 2 hours each way. In your opinion(s), is it a decent place? Customer service good? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Hey everyone,

I recently moved to Tracy from San Jose. I was wondering if anyone is familiar with any carpool services? I know some companies offer carpool, vanpool or ride share services for their employees. I even looked for casinos that picks and drops off customers but there are no casinos in Tracy. (lol)

I don't drive. I am scared of driving due to some trauma which I'm working on. I get picked up and dropped off but the distance is the deal breaker since my job is 1 hr from Tracy and I work odd hours. I only need a ride from SJ to Tracy at nights 615ish pm 2x a week. Uber $ in total is almost a carpayment, car insurance and gas which is not bad BUT I still want to save money and find a ride share service or etc. Coworkers don't live around Tracy area.

I did looked for the trains, unfortunately, there are none at that time.

Please don't tell me "why did you moved to Tracy if you job is in SJ then?" and "why can't u find a job near by?" both options won't work at the moment. I have a flexible 13hr job with okay pay, new baby and housing in Tracy is cheaper than apt in SJ.

Thanks in advance!

I just say it's been replaced by Nick the Greek.

been putting off my CPR renewal for a few months now because every option i find seems to require blocking out an entire day for a classroom session. i work long shifts and finding a full day that works with my schedule has been impossible. there has to be a more flexible option in or near tracy that still produces a legitimate american heart association certified card. has anyone in the area done this recently and found something that actually works around a real schedule?
