City - El Cerrito

El Cerrito is a suburban Bay Area city positioned right between Berkeley and Richmond. 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. The close proximity to larger cities like San Francisco and Oakland makes El Cerrito a popular option for commuters, and BART rail service makes it easy to get around the area without having to drive.

School data provided by 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.

Convenient commute, nice unit

The units are new and very nice. It's close to parks and playgrounds for my daughter, and easy for me to take BART into SF. Trader Joe's and Starbucks is walking distance, as well as a little mainstreet with shops and restaurants. It's also pet friendly, which is a huge plus for me, as well as the air conditioning. I haven't tried the BBQ area yet but i'm looking forward to it. The leasing process was super easy which was nice after other experiences I've had.

2/14/18
Great so far

My wife and I moved in two months ago. Management is very responsive and it made move-in pretty easy. We both commute and the fact that the BART station is walking distance has proved a lot more convenient and quicker door to door than I thought. There are restaurants and coffee shops we can walk to as well. I like the hardwood floors as well and the appliances work well. We haven't had any noise or other issues.
