Flynn St, Sebastopol

Don't let the name fool you - this is most definitely not your Orange County Laguna Beach scene. The street is a very quiet side street to the main drag, and almost feels deserted. Even though you are in a relatively living and breathing town, you can tell that you are on the outskirts and are not far from farms and pastures.

This street has several major attractions - the police department (a very slow-moving police department at that - not exactly typical California), the Rifle & Piston Club (again, not exactly the beaches and sunsets that one may think of) and Whole Foods (okay, somewhat California). It has a bit of a deserted, industrial lot feel, but at least it is close to Main Street.

Fortunately, the traffic on this street is not horrific, although getting onto 116 during rush hour can be tricky.
