Community spirit thrives in Allendale
A small residential neighborhood 15 miles outside San Francisco, Allendale offers residents easy access to a nearby train station, cute local restaurants, and a historical park.

Allendale benefits from that.” Gray also says the area is friendly, and neighbors tend to know each other. The neighborhood even has a block party night alongside National Night Out, a citywide block party night hosted by the city in early August. “Oakland has a block party night; Allendale has one of its own.” This sense of community starts throughout Oakland and lives along the streets of Allendale.
