Foster City is home to several large corporate offices, but its central location in the Bay Area puts it just minutes away from San Francisco, Oakland, and Silicon Valley, making it a great rental option for commuters—positioned right at the foot of the San Mateo Bridge, even getting to the other side of the bay is easy.
Recreation on the water is quite popular among the locals, with extensive waterways making life easy for boaters and the frequently-windy conditions on San Francisco Bay drawing windsurfers and kite surfers (those who enjoy nice views of the bay but prefer to stay dry can take advantage of the Bay Trail for walking, running, or biking). Public services in Foster City are top notch-- the crime rate here is exceptionally low, and the schools earn excellent marks across the board.

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 Sand Cove
The scenery here is beautiful, but the management is extremely disorganized. When I first moved in, the refrigerator was broken and there was no hot water in the bathroom. It took nearly a full week to get these basic things fixed. Now, my washing machine is leaking — I submitted a maintenance request two weeks ago and it still hasn’t been addressed. The leasing office claims to be open 9am–6pm, but there's almost never anyone available, and maintenance is impossible to reach. Living here means you better pray nothing in your unit ever breaks — because once it does, you’ll be on your own for a while. Really disappointing experience for such a nice-looking place.
Property Manager at Sand Cove, Responded To This Review

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the maintenance delays, and we're working diligently to improve our response times. We invite you to reach out to our office so we can address your concerns directly. - The Management Team
First time you walk into this apartment you wI'll be blown away with how big your living area is! This was the the main reason we signed up. The dining room and kitchen has an open feel. A table can house 6 chairs comfortably. And still room for your wine stand. Your bedroom is great size for your queen size bed, long dresser and 2 night stands..And still room to walk on both sides to make the bed. Both bedrooms have an expansive room for clothes and other misc. oh, did I share how central you are to a beautiful lagoon, library, city hall, grocery store, post office, farmer's market. Do I need to say more? Oh, one more cool benefit is this complex has been coded for condo living meaning extra insulation was installed. Very quiet here. So when you come home here you can kick off your shoes and feel the serenity and calmness around you.
When moving out, they charged $450 for cleaning/painting!!!!!!! That is ridiculous
