WELCOME TO MENLO PARK | ATHERTON

Ranked as the #1 most expensive place to live by Forbes in 2017, the only word to describe this pocket is prestige. Beautiful tree-lined neighborhoods with expansive estates, and active commercial districts can be found throughout this pocket of Silicon Valley. The stunning natural surroundings of the city afford views of the San Francisco Bay to the east and the Pacific Coastal Range to the west. This is one of the go-to destinations for founders and CEO’s of some of the most prominent U.S. based companies.
​​​​​​​
Nestled between the Pacific Coast and the San Francisco Bay, Atherton celebrates some of the country's most beautifully manicured estates and mansions. The town's multi-million dollar homes and notable residents, including football legend Jerry Rice, prompted Forbes Magazine to declare Atherton the most affluent zip code in the United States. The town is centered around the Menlo Circus Club, with its private stables and dual rings. Atherton's thickly wooded scenic landscape is free of major businesses and large retail establishments. Its open space is host to a multitude of pine, redwood, and cedar trees and many residents are afforded pristine views of the picturesque coastlines. This town that promotes art, cultural awareness and the preservation of its landscape is sure to satisfy nature and beauty lovers alike.
