City - Walnut Creek

Conveniently located near Oakland and San Francisco, Walnut Creek is an East Bay community filled with rugged, wide-open spaces and an abundance of shopping opportunities, making it the ideal city for easy access to big-city amenities and the great outdoors. Walnut Creek is roughly 30 minutes from Oakland by vehicle, but if public transportation is your preference, this suburb also has direct BART service to both Oakland and San Fran!

Walnut Creek is home to numerous bike paths for both recreation and practical transportation—if you enjoy running your errands or getting to work by bike. Upscale apartments near downtown are very walkable, while rentals towards the east end offer residents easy access to nearby nature preserves and the city’s open spaces. Walnut Creek owns more open space per capita than any city in California, giving residents an enormous amount of room to enjoy outdoor activities.
