In town, the environment is mostly suburban, with top-notch schools, one of the lowest crime rates in the state, and an abundance of locally-owned shops and restaurants. The parks in town offer something for every taste, from small neighborhood greenspaces to enormous, trail-filled nature preserves like Lafayette Reservoir and Briones Hills.

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 Lafayette Highlands
The walls are PAPER thin, you can hear every word your neighbors say. When someone orders a package it is just thrown in front of the mailboxes anyone could steal them. There has been an outrageous about of car break-ins. Not the place to live if you want it to be peaceful. Lastly, there is no on-site leasing office, even though they advertise one.
