Get Directions
City - Lafayette

Tucked into the rolling hills of Contra Costa County, Lafayette sits just a BART ride from Oakland and San Francisco, making it one of the Bay Area's most well-connected suburban cities. Daily life revolves around the outdoors — Lafayette Reservoir draws hikers, joggers, and kayakers year-round, while Briones Regional Park offers miles of trails with sweeping East Bay views. Downtown Lafayette features a walkable stretch of locally owned shops and restaurants that give the area a genuine small-town feel, despite the major metro region next door.

Renters will find various housing options, from garden-style apartment communities nestled in the hills to spacious townhomes and low-rise buildings near the downtown corridor. The BART station makes the city especially appealing for commuters who want a quieter base without sacrificing easy Bay Area access.
