Pleasant Hill, Pleasant Hill, CA
Neighborhood Reviews & Questions
Confusingly, one of Pleasant Hill's neighborhoods is just named Pleasant Hill, and it sits at the southern end of the city near the Walnut Creek line, around the Pleasant Hill Road and Taylor Boulevard area. It is an established, low-key residential pocket that feeds into Pleasant Hill Elementary, and it has long been one of the steadier, safer-feeling parts of town. Nearby Dinosaur Hill Park, the small open-space hill off Taylor Boulevard, gives the area a real outdoor anchor, with short trails and a view that takes in Pleasant Hill, Concord, and Walnut Creek. What it does not have is much walkable retail, so this is a drive-to-your-errands neighborhood, with the Contra Costa Boulevard shops and the downtown district a few minutes off. The bonus of sitting on the Walnut Creek border is that downtown Walnut Creek's restaurants and shopping are an easy hop south. People who want a settled block with parks and trails close, and a bigger downtown within reach, tend to land here.
