City - 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.

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.
