Neighborhood Reviews & Questions

Neighborhood Review

Key Words:

Excellent schools, Deep lots, Neighborhood stability

Centered around its namesake street and anchored by the highly regarded Booksin Elementary, this Willow Glen-adjacent neighborhood blends residential quiet with close access to urban perks. The streets here feel more tucked away than central Willow Glen, with deeper front yards, wider lots, and a relaxed residential rhythm. Homes range from updated mid-century ranches to newer infill construction, especially on some of the deeper parcels. While the neighborhood lacks a retail core of its own, Lincoln Avenue’s shops and restaurants are just a short drive or bike ride away, and nearby Doerr Park offers a solid recreation option with tennis courts, baseball fields, and open green space. Access to Hillsdale Avenue and Meridian Avenue makes for easy commuting, though some areas near major intersections can feel more trafficked. The neighborhood earns steady interest due to its schools, consistent home values, and strong community feel, but is less walkable than other parts of Willow Glen. It’s a pocket that’s family-focused in layout and draws long-term residents who value quiet streets and suburban privacy.
