Foster City,

Built on a former Bay island in the 1960s, Foster City is a master-planned community where peaceful lagoons and open water are practically part of the neighborhood. Situated between San Mateo and Redwood Shores in San Mateo County, the city offers quick access to both Highway 92 and US-101, putting San Francisco, Palo Alto, and SFO within easy reach. Nearby Hillsdale Caltrain and Millbrae BART stations give commuters even more options. Leo J. Ryan Park anchors the waterfront, the Bay Trail stretches along the shoreline for walking and cycling, and the breezy conditions off San Francisco Bay draw windsurfers to Baywinds Park on weekends.
Shopping and dining are centered around Edgewater Place and Charter Square, while neighborhoods like Town Center, Whalers Island, and Marlin Cove each offer a slightly different feel—from lagoonside paths to mixed-use conveniences.
