Life in Marin has become more challenging as we contend with heat and smokey skies on top of COVID precautions. AirNow.gov, PurpleAir.com, and IQAir.com are useful sites that provide information on current and forecasted air quality.
PG&E conducted a series of blackouts over the past week to relieve stress on the electrical grid. The County of Marin has compiled a list of suggestions on preparing for outages, and AlertMarin offers a notification system to
provide alerts about upcoming outages.
Despite these challenges, Marin remains a magical place to live. Here are some great suggestions for family-friendly activities and take-out options this weekend.
Wishing you a safe and relaxing weekend!

Market Report
|
Zillow just released its 2020 Urban-Suburban Market Report, confirming
a trend that we have been talking about for months: a dramatic movement out of San Francisco. While i
nventory in the city was extremely low prior to the pandemic, the 96% year-over-year increase is a historic shift.
SFGATE explains that "this change is likely a combination of a few unprecedented factors that have collided this summer" -- the cost of owning a home in San Francisco, and the coronavirus. "The pandemic soon led to tech giants like Google, Facebook, and Twitter rethinking what work looks like, as many have allowed employees to work remotely for the foreseeable future... This, combined with the fact that m
ost entertainment venues, eateries, and bars in the city have closed, has left many residents with little reason to stay, while more spacious, literally greener pastures beckon in nearby and (relatively) less costly regions of California."
The Marin County real estate market is benefiting significantly from this migration and Compass is the brokerage of choice, as the charts below illustrate.
