Neighborhood

Located about two miles east of central Berkeley, the neighborhood of Berkeley Hills offers spacious houses for rent with modern kitchens and stunning views of the hills, valleys, canyons, and San Francisco Bay.

Locals in this neighborhood love to hang out at breathtaking, 2,000-acre Tilden Regional Park with its carousel, hiking trails, scenic views, picnic areas, and swimming holes. Enjoy the much smaller Berkeley Rose Garden with its terraced plantings of roses and views of San Francisco Bay. If you like rock climbing or bouldering, visit Grotto Rock Park or Cragmont Rock Park, which also features views of the Bay.

Buy beautiful 19th- and 20th-century Japanese prints at the Scriptum art gallery, and perch atop the fiberglass whale at the Lawrence Hall of Science. Savor some American cuisine at Foothill restaurant.

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.
