Neighborhood

Lush greenery lines the Gerstle Park neighborhood’s extensive sidewalk system, giving residents every excuse to walk up the 4th Street or B Street for groceries, morning coffee, or after-hours R&R. On the south side of the neighborhood, the eponymous park’s playgrounds, footpaths, and shady trees provide a delightful spot to relax and enjoy the outdoors.

Multiple elementary schools in the Gerstle Park area give parents options for their children’s education, and of course walking to class is one of the many perks of the neighborhood’s cozy layout (James B. Davidson Middle School sits just outside the neighborhood as well). Convenient access to the 101 and Interstate 580 makes it easy to reach Oakland or San Francisco in under an hour.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Best San Rafael Location

I love this apartment complex. I just moved recently, but my experience has been fabulous. The one bedrooms have a really sensible layout. The kitchen is open to the living room and comparatively very large. The updates are not super high end, but everything is very clean and new. I love the large bathroom and walk in closet. The grounds are very well cared for, and the complex has a nice mix of young single people, families, and retirees. Its great that pets are allowed, and none of them seem to cause any problems. The neighborhood may be the best part. Its just a block over from gerstle park and all the great hiking trails. Easy walk to the transit center, safeway, downtown and, of course, muffin mania.
