About

The geographical epicenter of Redwood City is formed by a neighborhood known appropriately as Central Redwood City. Located south of Jefferson Avenue, west of El Camino Real, north of Woodside Road, and east of Hudson Street, this neighborhood is within conveniently close proximity to local amenities. For commuters, this neighborhood is within walking distance of Caltrain, and it is also within a 10-minute drive of both Highway 101 and Interstate 280. Downtown Redwood City borders Central Redwood City on the east, with popular Whole Foods Market and the shopping center at Sequoia Station also within walking distance.

Comprised mostly of single-family, mid-century residences, Central Redwood City also offers some multi-family residences and apartment buildings along Jefferson Avenue and on the eastern side near El Camino Real and Roosevelt Avenue. Single-family residences can range between 800 square feet to 3,000 square feet and may offer up to five bedrooms. Lot sizes vary here, with most averaging between 5,000 square feet and 6,000 square feet.
