San Carlos
San Carlos is a wonderful residential town in between Belmont and Redwood City … it’s name means “The City of Good Living”, and indeed that is the feeling you’ll get on your first visit or hundredth to this gem of a town. With top rated public schools, and its own cute downtown, revolving around Laurel Avenue, there are plenty of shops, cafes, and restaurants to poke your head into and stroll around.
San Carlos even has its own small craft airport, along with the Hiller Aviation Museum, and you can even have your first lesson with Diamond Aviation
You’ll find a wide variety of homes in San Carlos, from quaint two bedrooms all the way up to master built homes perched in the hills with panoramic views of the bay – there’s even some gorgeous luxury condos just across the street from City Hall and minutes from Laurel Avenue.
