Welcome to Redwood City

 

The fun never stops in this family-friendly treasure on the shores of San Francisco Bay, where enriching community activities thrive

 

Humming with an effervescent pulse of energy, the dynamic Redwood City is a Silicon Valley pillar tucked against the docks of the San Francisco Bay. All summer long, the sounds of cheerful live concerts bellow out from the town square, in perfect harmony with the busy hustle of the docks. Waterfront parks and access to nearby open space preserves both keep Redwood City well-stocked in the Peninsula’s natural beauty, too. 
 
As the only deepwater port on the Peninsula, Redwood City brags a colorful history that includes its transition from a town known for lumber and shipping into a city steeped in Tech monoliths like Oracle, Electronic Arts, and Informatica. Redwood City is notable, too, for its convivial Downtown, which underwent a renovation to invigorate the entire city. Even the city’s idyllic weather is a selling point, with the phrase, “Best Climate by Government Test” used as a slogan in the past. 
 
Architectural styles are varied in the residential real estate of Redwood City, with homes constructed throughout the entirety of the 20th century. Mid-century gems, historic estates, and contemporary new builds make up a good portion of the market, ranging in design from Mediterranean to sleek modern.

If that isn’t enough to get residents excited, then there’s always the nightly “Movies on the Square” in the summer.
