Central, welcoming San Jose community near Little Saigon
Four miles from downtown San Jose, the Meadows neighborhood is a compact, densely populated community located next to Little Saigon, which has one of the largest Vietnamese populations in the United States. “Being in San Jose feels like you are living all over the world, but in one place, without the feeling of being an outsider. There are always people here who are happy to welcome you to this vibrant community,” says Hadeel Wafa, Transportation Assistant and Engineer at Rajappan & Meyer Consulting Engineers based in San Jose. Several houses of worship are close by, like San Jose Christian Alliance Church, which conducts services in English, Cantonese and Mandarin. This primarily residential enclave is part of Silicon Valley, and many residents commute to the tech giants located nearby. It’s also close to green spaces like Kelley Park and major roadways like the Bayshore Freeway. “Getting around is a breeze, too. There’s great accessibility whether locals are driving, biking, or using the VTA buses,” Wafa says. Meadows provides a place to call home for those looking to plant their flag in Silicon Valley.

Blocks of interconnected homes and midcentury houses
Meadows contains single-family homes, townhouses and condos, which were built between the 1970s and 1990s. Many have minimal, traditional designs, but there are plenty of Mediterranean- and Craftsman-inspired ranch-style houses to be found. Some of the townhouses and condo buildings are interconnected and can span entire blocks. These typically sport side-gabled or flat roof designs linking the homes together. Small, personalized front lawns and ornate gates show off the homeowner’s aesthetic. Prices range from about $800,000 to $1.3 million, with homes over $1 million between 1,000 to 2,000 square feet. Homes on the market under $800,000 may be good candidates for renovations. The average home value of the San Jose metro area is twice that of Meadows home. Condos range from $390,000 to $558,000.

Multiple parks and outdoor swimming pools
One draw to the Meadows neighborhood is its easy access to green spaces. It’s close to 172-acre Kelley Park and its zoo, amphitheater and Japanese Gardens. Turtle Rock Park is a one-acre space with a playground, picnic areas and grills. Nisich Park is one of San Jose’s newest converted spaces: it has transitioned from an abandoned lot to an open turf area with a playground and courts for basketball, tennis and bocce ball. Located on Bacchus Drive, the Fair Swim Center features three pools: one for laps, one for general swimming and one for toddlers. The children’s pool has a zero-depth entry to keep kids safe, while the general pool has several water features and slides. There’s a picnic area, and covered structures provide shade on sunny days.
