San Lorenzo sits 12 miles south of Oakland on the eastern edge of the San Francisco Bay. The neighborhood, primarily comprised of several thousand single-family homes bordered by a small commercial district, holds claim to fame for being the first planned housing community built in the nation. Residents enjoy wildlife and recreation in the marshes along the waterfront as well as easy access to larger surrounding cities like San Leandro, Hayward, and Fremont.
Access to BART metro transit and the overall buzz of the Bay Area has made San Lorenzo a burgeoning community fit with plenty of apartment rentals and attractions.
