Mountain View Overview

Mountain View, California, is a bustling town nestled in the heart of Silicon Valley. With a downtown area that’s pedestrian-friendly and its close proximity to many major tech companies, this gem of a city is the ideal location for many people. Real estate prices in the city are high, but Mountain View apartments are an affordable option.

What is the history of Mountain View?

Once settled by the Ohlone Indian tribe, the area that is now Mountain View then served as a lush pasture for sheep. As European Americans began to make their way west into California in the mid-1800s, the town became a stop for those traveling between San Francisco and San Jose. More recently, the city has developed a reputation for being home to many tech giants and the people who work there.

How is the weather in Mountain View?

" Mountain View residents enjoy mild weather year-round. Winter temperatures average around 50 degrees Fahrenheit while summer temperatures average 68 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s the perfect location for those who never want to get too hot or too cold."

How do I get around town?

The city’s downtown area is fairly walkable, but you may appreciate having a car, especially if you want to get out of town. The Caltrain light rail system is an easy way to get into San Francisco, which could then connect you to the city’s extensive public transit systems. Some major employers offer shuttles to the office. For those who need to travel farther, you’ll find that the San Francisco, San Jose and Oakland airports are all conveniently located.

What is the Mountain View commute like?

In a highly populated area like Mountain View, you can expect fairly heavy traffic throughout the day, especially during the morning and evening commute times. This is true whether you’re taking Route 85 to San Jose or the El Camino Real to the other side of town. That’s why public transportation options are so important.

What are the local media outlets?

Most people in Mountain View enjoy getting their news from sources throughout the Bay Area. The San Francisco Chronicle is a popular newspaper, but many people also like the Metro Silicon Valley, which is a weekly alternative newspaper with a local focus. All of the major television stations are available from San Francisco.

Why live in Mountain View, CA?

People flock to Mountain View for variety of reasons. For some, a home that’s conveniently located to their employer is the biggest draw. Others choose this city over San Francisco because it has a more suburban feel. If you’re looking at the city from somewhere else in the U.S., you’ll love the mild weather and how easy it is to take weekend trips to popular areas. As a city, Mountain View has just about everything you might be looking for in your next home.

What Mountain View landmarks should I see?

The heart of Mountain View is its downtown area along Castro Street. There you’ll find a variety of shops for finding the perfect gift and cafes for relaxing with friends. The city’s large public library is also in this area. El Camino Real is a highly commercialized street that’s home to many popular nationwide stores and restaurants, such as Walgreens, Office Depot, Chipotle, and Starbucks.

What is there to do around Mountain View?

The Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts holds many theatrical events throughout the year. Music fans will look forward to summer concerts at the nearby Shoreline Amphitheater, where popular artists from every genre come to play.

Any annual festivals or Mountain View events to know?

Living in Mountain View makes it convenient to head up to the many annual festivals held in San Francisco, but there are a few local festivals as well. The Mountain View Art & Wine Festival is held annually downtown and there’s live music and car shows once a month during the summers at the Thursday Night Live events.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

If you’re looking to get away from it all, you’re in luck. You could head to Napa Valley in the north for some wine and relaxation or hit the slopes in Lake Tahoe. Both are within a reasonable driving distance. If you don’t mind a longer drive or shelling out the money for a short flight, Las Vegas and San Diego are great destinations for a long weekend.

Where is the best place to move in Mountain View?

" With the possibility of a tough commute, the best option for moving to the city is to look for apartments in Mountain View that are close to your job. If you can bike or walk to work, your life will probably be easier. Those who live in the downtown area will have easy access to public transportation, but there are also great apartment complexes throughout the city. Check out all of your options before you sign a lease."
