Why Cambrian attracts families compared to nearby neighborhoods
Cambrian sits in the southern part of the city, where it’s more removed from the bustles of downtown. The neighborhood’s average home values are slightly higher than Willow Glen and Campbell, often attracting buyers looking for easy highway access and good schools. “Cambrian is a pricier neighborhood, and it’s popular for families with kids,” says Gary Palacios, Realtor at Compass with over 20 years of experience. “The schools are very good, and the streets are very walkable. It’s central to freeways and is close to Los Gatas and Campbell, so it’s a good area.”
Cambrian School District and Campbell Union High School District
While most elementary and middle school students are part of Cambrian School District, a small percentage of families are served by Union School District.

Students then go on to schools in Campbell Union High School District, which is rated by Niche as one of the best school districts in Santa Clara County.
