Rent your home or apartment in the quiet Burbank neighborhood and find downtown Hayward just a mile away. Hop on nearby Jackson Street to reach the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge, leading to the West Bay and San Francisco, or take Jackson Street to Interstate 880 for a trip south to San Jose or north to Oakland.
You might run into your neighbors while picnicking or watching an impromptu softball game at Centennial Park on the western end of Burbank. Head just two blocks north to Cannery Park, which features its own splash and skateboard parks. Feel like a quiet walk? Take to the pathways in the Hayward Japanese Gardens, roughly two miles east.
Along Jackson Street, you can also find many of Burbank's neighborhood restaurants. Indulge in a variety of cuisines, including Mexican, French, Indian, and Japanese. Southland Mall offers even more restaurants, along with enough shopping and entertainment opportunities to keep you busy all day long.

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.

Property Ratings at City Centre
I have been a resident at Essex City Centre since 2019, prior to the pandemic, and my experience living here has always been quite pleasant. However, I must express a few concerns that have arisen since that time. During the pandemic, the leasing office understandably closed its doors, allowing only one resident at a time to enter for any matters related to their tenancy. Now that the world has largely returned to normal, it appears that the leasing office has permanently closed. To reach anyone, one must contact the Essex number, which can be quite frustrating. Moreover, the office staff seems to have lost their previous level of dedication and accessibility, as they are frequently working remotely and proving difficult to reach. The leasing office building, in addition to its office space, also features a recreational room that is funded by all residents. Unfortunately, despite this financial contribution, residents have been denied access to this facility. Additionally, rent has actually increased rather than reflecting the current limitations on amenities. City Centre advertises itself as a safe community with onsite security in the evenings, but regrettably, this is not the reality. Griffin Protection Services, the contracted security company, is nowhere to be found unless specifically called upon, and even then, their response can be delayed or nonexistent. This lack of security presence has resulted in incidents such as car break-ins and disturbances during the community's designated quiet hours. Furthermore, the unnumbered parking spots that residents pay for are consistently occupied by vehicles without valid parking permits, forcing us to park on the street outside the gated community. It is worth mentioning that we chose to reside in a gated community specifically to avoid this inconvenience. These issues could easily be remedied through increased staff presence and monitoring. As it stands, however, I must express my deep disappointment with Essex City Centre.
I love this community of apartment homes its quiet clean and very secure its a gated community..
