If you chose to live in Alameda, I'd say you'd have a hard time going wrong. Alameda is definitely one of the nicer cities in the Bay Area, and convenient since it's right next to the Oakland Airport. The only bad thing is BART doesn't go there since it's on an island. |

Alameda and Union City are nowhere near each other and not at all alike. Alameda is an island just off of Oakland - quiet, safe, tree-lined streets with lots of gorgeous old Victorians as well as newer developments, especially on Bay Farm Island where the Oakland airport is.
Union City is just north of Fremont (much closer to San Jose than to Oakland). It has no central "downtown" area. It is all newer suburban tract communities. Shopping is in strip malls. It's safe and is not a bad place, but nothing like Alameda.

The Landings at Oak Hill
Check out the Landings at Oak Hill, less than 1 mile from I-85 at 4300 Flat Shoals Road. Beautiful apartment community on 45 acres with incredible landscaping and newly renovated apartments. Union City is incredibly convenient to Downtown Atlanta and the airport.
