Los Altos likes to strike a balance between the urbanized atmosphere of the Bay Area and the more rural environment of the wide-open spaces bordering the city’s southwest side. While it is mainly a residential community, the downtown area surrounding Main Street is a walkable shopping and dining district with tree-lined streets and several public parks nearby. The crime rate is quite low and the local schools are among the highest-performing in the state. Palo Alto is right next door and San Jose just a few minutes down the road, giving Los Altos residents convenient access to Silicon Valley’s greatest amenities.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
