A city in Northern California. First came on to the map because of its extreme liberal reputation and for being a Mecca for hippies in the 60's and 70's. *(this is my take on Beekeley after moving here form LA area 8mths ago)*
Berkeley is now classified by different sections.
Berkeley Hills:
The sole reason Subaru and rooftop-boxes are still in business. The Berkeley Hills now serve as an upscale retirement community for aged former hippies who, although raised on the hippie ideology of giving to the poor, they now seclude themselves in an upper class community far away from the poor(we) people downtown. If you're thinking about visiting this part of Berkeley, don't, the streets aren't wide enough for anything larger than a Prius.
Downtown Berkeley:
This section of Berkeley (including campus) is a more urban setting. Pedestrians will walk right in front of your car and give YOU The dirty look for being too close to them. Walk down Telegraph and you'll be asked for change more times than being backstage at a fashion show. Parking enforcement "officers" swarm this area like flies on shit or buzzards on a carcas, only grosser.
Berkeley Flats:
The flats of Berkeley are the only part of town that resemble some sort of normal living situation. Driveways, straight streets, less foot traffic and relatively middle class people in actual neighborhoods.

Get the Berkeley mug.ire, iconoclasticism, the urge to question authority. When something gets my Berkeley up, I'm feeling feisty and considering activism -- usually, but not necessarily political.

Get the beerkkake mug.Berkley is a girl that is beautiful. She is gifted through the arts and is kind hearted. She is laid back and chill but she takes things seriously. Berkley is a girl that you can be totally crazy with, but also have serious conversations with. If you are going through tough times, she will help you through it. If you have a Berkley. Don't take her for granted.
Berkley is an amazing friend
