Picturesque Berkeley is one of California’s bayside gems. Just across from San Francisco, Berkeley is one of the Golden State’s meccas of knowledge and culture. This thriving city is home to the renowned University of California, Berkeley. Accented with all of the color and local flair you’d expect from this bayside college town, this is a community with housing styles for everyone. Whether you choose to live in the cool and funky South Berkeley, which mixes stories-high apartment homes with the community feel of one-story shops and eateries, or in the scenic and historic architecture of the Southside area, you’ll feel immersed in the culture and history of Berkeley.
Entertainment is boundless in Berkeley. If you’re looking for an open-air concert or festival, rock out at the Hearst Greek Theatre. Travel back in time to the 1960s counterculture movement by strolling down Telegraph Avenue where you can find local bars, cuisine, and music stores.

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.
