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.”
