Great proximity and (relative!) affordability

Redwood City is one of the most affordable places to live on the Peninsula. Besides having great weather, we are close to everything. In 45 minutes, we can be in downtown San Francisco, swimming in the Pacific Ocean or camping in Redwood forests. Even closer are Stanford University, both the San Francisco and San Jose airports, and more open space preserves than I've had time to explore even after 12 years of living and hiking here. We have a great downtown area that as been recently revitalized, but when we get tired of it we just go 10 minutes north to San Carlos or 10 minutes south to Menlo Park and Palo Alto, each of which has a great selection of restaurants and shops.
