Neighborhood

Located approximately 20 miles east of Oakland via California Highway 24, Alamo provides residents with a serene, tranquil environment. Alamo is nestled within the Northern California countryside and the large custom homes on half-acre lots further enhance the peaceful serenity of this unincorporated area of Contra Costa County. 

Despite its relatively remote location, public transportation is still an option for Alamo residents.The Walnut Creek BART Route 21 will connect you to the Walnut Creek station. From there, you can ride to Downtown Oakland or the Civic Center in San Francisco in approximately 60 and 90 minutes, respectively. 

Alamo features plenty of great public parks such as Andrew H. Young Park, Hap Magee Ranch Park, Livorna Park, and Rancho Romero School Sports Field and Park. Each of these provide a variety of different amenities such as sports fields and courts, dog parks, and playgrounds.The 33-mile multi-use Iron Horse Regional Trail  connects Concord and Dublin, but passes directly through downtown Alamo and is ideal for horseback riding, jogging, or taking a brisk stroll any time of day.

Walnut Creek sits at the base of Mount Diablo with quick access to open space, the Iron Horse Regional Trail, and BART service from two nearby stations (Walnut Creek and Pleasant Hill/Contra Costa Centre), making trips to Oakland, San Francisco, and the Tri-Valley straightforward. 

Downtown centers on Broadway Plaza —an open-air shopping district with flagship retailers like Nordstrom and Apple—plus scores of cafes and services. The Lesher Center for the Arts anchors the arts scene with hundreds of performances each year. 

Parks and trails are a big draw: the city maintains 16 parks and 3,000+ acres of protected open space, and Civic Park’s habitat gardens (including a butterfly garden) sit steps from the Iron Horse Trail.

You’ll find a mix of homes in Walnut Creek: 1950s–70s ranches on larger lots, pockets of mid-century Eichlers in Rancho San Miguel, and established areas like Parkmead and Northgate with tree-lined streets and community pools. Near BART and downtown are townhomes and condo buildings—many newer, mixed-use, and walkable. In the hills, custom homes capture Mount Diablo views. Walnut Creek also includes Rossmoor, one of the Bay Area’s largest 55+ communities, with condos, co-ops, and single-level homes plus resort-style amenities.
