Tucked between Stanford and the Bay, this tree-lined community offers a rare mix of walkability, top-rated schools, and effortless access to innovation hubs like Palo Alto and Redwood City.

In Menlo Park, leisure feels elevated yet easy, and every day carries that understated Peninsula charm its residents love.
