about this
Neighborhood
∎
Piedmont Pines is a small, affluent neighborhood located in Oakland, where the median household income is just over $1 million. The largely residential neighborhood of 4,625 residents is occupied by more homeowners than renters. Many homeowners are retirees. The three schools located in Piedmont Pines are Child's Play School, Joaquin Miller Elementary School, and Montera Middle School.
Many consider Piedmont Pines to be a part of the larger Montclair district. Most people take a short drive into Montclair for day-to-day errands to grocery stores, coffee shops, and restaurants.
Local eats are situated just on the outskirts of the neighborhood. These include restaurants such as Italian Colors, D.Monaghan's Oakland, Pattys & Buns Burgers, and Highwire Coffee Roasters. Nearby attractions include Chabot Space & Science Center and Montclair Golf.
Continue down Skyline Boulevard and onto Manzanita Drive where The Hills Swim & Tennis Club awaits. The members-only fitness club offers group fitness classes, Pilates, a large pool, and scenic views of Mt. Diablo.
Piedmont Pines is largely a quiet neighborhood surrounded by redwood forests and grasslands (offering plenty of privacy to its residents). It is admired by many for its slow pace away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
