THE INTERSECTION: Home Sweet Google

David Boyer
/
KALW News / The Intersection

There's only one housing development within walking distance of Google's headquarters in Mountain View. It's a diverse mobile home park named Santiago Villa. But whatever you do, don't call it a trailer park.

In this episode of THE INTERSECTION — a KALW podcast that looks at change in the Bay Area — we'll meet the people who live here. And we'll find out why some are worried that their days here are numbered. 

“Googlers — when I show them where I live — they're like, ‘Oh my god, how do I get in?’ Because it's so close, and most Googlers are fighting through really intense traffic.”

Subscribe to THE INTERSECTION wherever you get your podcasts or at www.theintersection.fm, and listen to all-new episodes this week on KALW's Crosscurrents. 

THE INTERSECTION was made possible with a grant from the San Francisco Arts Commission and support from California Humanities, a nonprofit partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
