Get Directions
Stretching east from 14th Avenue to 29th Avenue in east Oakland, San Antonio may share a name with a Texan city, but this neighborhood is 100% Californian. Bordering the neighborhoods of Fruitvale and East Lake, San Antonio provides a walkable Oakland setting with plenty to see, eat, and experience in the Bay Area. The neighborhood is just three miles from Downtown Oakland and about 14 miles from San Francisco's civic center. Explore International Boulevard, a fitting name for a place that houses taco shops, Cajun food, Thai food, and artisan coffee. San Antonio has the added benefit of being close to Interstate 880 and a few Bay Area Rapid Transit lines. You’ll find impressive Victorian homes here, but most residents enjoy a plethora of low- and mid-rise apartments with access to all that San Antonio has to offer.
