Welcome to Mountain View

Mountain View was integral to the early history and growth of Silicon Valley. While few remnants are visible of the city's agricultural past, today, high technology is the foundation of the local economy and housing the headquarters of many of the world's largest technology companies, Google among many others. Enjoying a Mediterranean climate, Mountain View has a pedestrian-friendly downtown centered on Castro Street. Four blocks with a concentration of restaurants, cafes, and shops extend south from the downtown station.
 

Did You Know?

You could call Mountain View the city of parks! The largest one in the city is Shoreline Park, which includes the Shoreline Amphitheater, Shoreline Golf Course, as well as Rengstorff House, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. On the north side, facing the Bay, the park includes tidal ponds and mudflats, accessible via pedestrian and bicycle paths. The San Francisco Bay Trail runs along Shoreline Park.
 

Housing and Real Estate Current Market

Most of Mountain View consists of residential neighborhoods. The Blossom Valley neighborhood comprises five smaller neighborhoods: Springer Meadows, Varsity Park, Blossom Valley Estates, Springer Trees, and Guest Ranch. The neighborhood's ranch-style housing was built in the 1950s and 1960s on orchard land.
 
The Cuernavaca neighborhood is located off Crestview Drive near the Sunnyvale border. This neighborhood used to be the location of a cherry orchard, and later a nine-hole golf course and swim club before it was turned into housing, which was completed in 1989. Most of the housing in Cuernavaca is Spanish-style, with red-tiled roofs.
 
The Monta Loma neighborhood is located between the bounds of San Antonio Road, Middlefield Road, Rengstorff Avenue, and Central Expressway. Currently, Monta Loma houses a collection of California-style mid-century modern houses by Joseph Eichler, John Calder Mackay, and the Mardell Building Company.
