Any suggestions on great realtors to work with?

Are you buying? Because in CA, realtors generally don't find rentals for people.

Oh wow, didn't realize that! We are a military family that will be renting.

Yeah, you're on your own. Craigslist, Hotpads, Padmapper, Zillow, Realtor.com, Trulia, etc.--the online route.

I grew up an Army brat. Years ago we lived on Fort Ord in Stilwell Park, on Bataan Road.

I might be wrong but i believe some homes on Fort Ord are still rented to military families & civilians. It's about eighty mile to Hunter Liggett, though. A friend of mine was then living in Camp Roberts.

Fort Ord is in between Marina & Seaside/Monterey. Just a mile or two on each side of Fort Ord to these towns.. The ocean is right there across the highway.

Early mornings i rode my Lambretta motor scooter into Monterey to work at Roller Chevrolet, then i went to school at Monterey High.

I used to drive past Hunter Liggett quite often because i drove along Jolon Road to go fishing at Nacimiento Lake (we caught bass, catfish, crappie). We fished at San Antonio Lake, nearby ( we caught bass, catfish, red ear perch). We fished some of the ponds on the back side of Hunter Liggett...

Arroyo Seco is a pretty rural place to live by the river, but there isn't any town or school right there. It's not too far from Greenfield.

Best of Luck to y'all finding your place...

Still shopping for house rentals.
How is Morro Bay as a place to live? Is it a family friendly town with family friendly communities? How are the schools (Morro Bay High, Los Osos Middle)? How close is it to shopping (WalMart, department stores - a mall is not a necessary requirement).

Are there areas of Paso Robles to stay away from? I heard there were areas with a lot more crime than others? True or false?

I split my retirement residences between San Diego and Morro Bay. MB is outstanding. Completely. Unless you are a teenager. Or an adult who likes big shopping / entertainment

Quiet. Scenic. Quaint. Ultra safe. Fantastic beaches. Hiking. And 12 miles to SLO gets you most everything you'd want from civilization.

Depends on your kids. If they're into surfing, they might adapt okay. But it is Q.U.I.E.T.

Also, did I mention it's a quiet town?
