Anchored by the California Avenue district, 94306 spans Barron Park, Ventura, College Terrace, Charleston Meadows, and Evergreen Park—tree-lined, bike-friendly neighborhoods with a sunny Mediterranean climate and a relaxed, intellectual vibe. Sundays bring the lively California Avenue farmers’ market; evenings lean mellow with wine bars and chef-driven spots like Protégé, Terún, and La Bodeguita del Medio, plus independent coffee shops and yoga/boutique fitness studios.

Outdoor life centers on Bol Park (donkey pasture and creek path), Juana Briones and Boulware parks, and the Cubberley Community Center fields, with easy rides to Stanford and Bay trails. Daily conveniences include Mollie Stone’s and Country Sun Natural Foods, and the area is commuter friendly via the California Ave Caltrain Station, El Camino Real, Page Mill, and quick links to 101 and 280. According to Zillow’s recent market trends, the median asking rent hovers around $4,500/month, with typical listings ranging from the low $3,000s for smaller units to $7,000+ for larger homes. Expect family- and pet-friendly patios and community events.
