Why Live in El Cerrito

El Cerrito, CA, meaning "Little Hill" in Spanish, is a Bay Area city with a population of around 24,000. Originally a refuge for San Francisco residents after the 1906 earthquake, El Cerrito has evolved into a suburb known for its affordability and outdoor activities. The city is adjacent to the San Pablo Ridge, offering scenic views and proximity to open spaces. Residents enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and trail running in areas like Hillside Natural Area and Wildcat Canyon Regional Park. The city boasts 16 parks covering 175 acres, including Cerrito Vista Park, which hosts the annual 4th of July Festival. El Cerrito's midcentury-era homes include cottages, bungalows, Craftsmans, and Mediterranean styles, with many properties on the hilly east side offering views of San Francisco Bay or the Golden Gate Bridge. San Pablo Avenue is the main commercial strip, featuring a mix of chain stores and local restaurants such as Los Moles Beer Garden and New Dumpling. El Cerrito Plaza offers additional shopping options with stores like Trader Joe’s and Barnes & Noble. The West Contra Costa Unified School District serves the city, providing college and career readiness resources. Transportation is facilitated by Interstate 80, Interstate 580, and two BART stations, making commutes to Oakland or San Francisco about 30 minutes. San Francisco International Airport is approximately 25 miles away. While violent crime rates are lower than the national average, the city faces risks from wildfires and earthquakes due to its proximity to wilderness areas and the Hayward Fault.
