City - Lafayette

Minutes from Oakland and San Francisco and practically right next door from the shopping, dining, and nightlife of Walnut Creek, Lafayette enjoys a perfect location for taking advantage of everything the North Bay Area has to offer. BART bus and rail service adds to the convenience, whether you’re a commuter or just checking out the neighboring communities for the day.

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.
