The Villages is a unique and well-established active adult community located in the southeastern foothills of San Jose. Known for being one of the Bay Area’s most prominent 55+ communities, it offers a resort-like atmosphere with a strong sense of organization, safety, and recreation. The neighborhood is built around The Villages Golf & Country Club, a private, resident-owned golf course that serves as the heartbeat of the community. In addition to golf, residents enjoy access to tennis courts, swimming pools, a fitness center, equestrian trails, community gardens, and dozens of clubs and social organizations. The Villages is gated and beautifully maintained, with rolling green hills, water features, and tree-lined streets contributing to its serene, manicured look. Homes here range from attached condos to single-family residences, many of which offer scenic views of the golf course or the surrounding Evergreen hills. Residents benefit from a peaceful, slow-paced lifestyle while still having easy access to nearby conveniences in Evergreen Village Square and along San Felipe Road. Notably, Montgomery Hill Park and Evergreen Valley College are just outside the neighborhood, adding open space and a walkable environment at the northern edge. The nearby foothills provide views and a quiet natural backdrop that’s hard to match elsewhere in the city.
