Predominately a residential community, the local rental market is huge, and ranges from luxury apartments to condos to single-family homes on quiet neighborhood streets. The area offers ample opportunities to spend quality time outdoors: Hillside Natural Area provides great views of San Francisco Bay, and the sprawling Wildcat Canyon Regional Park is loaded with trails through the unspoiled rolling hills.
