Tucked just west of Highway 101 and bordered by rolling hills and Richardson Bay, Marin City is one of the smallest and most distinct pockets of Southern Marin. Though technically part of unincorporated Marin County, it often gets grouped with Sausalito, despite having its own unique history and layout. The neighborhood consists mostly of hillside townhomes and apartments, many with expansive views across the water or toward Mount Tamalpais. Streets are quieter than you’d expect, with a few looping cul-de-sacs and limited through traffic. At the center is a shopping hub with a Target, eateries, and services, and residents benefit from quick freeway access to San Francisco just minutes away. Public access to nature is better than it appears at first glance: trailheads into the Marin Headlands and Oakwood Valley are walkable from the neighborhood, though sidewalks and connectivity are hit-or-miss. It’s a community with deep roots, a changing identity, and one of the most scenic backdrops in the region.
