SUNNYVALE
Welcome to Sunnyvale
Sunnyvale is one of Silicon Valley’s most central and dynamic cities, home to major employers including Apple, LinkedIn, and Lockheed Martin. It blends established neighborhoods with a revitalized downtown, offering strong value and convenience right in the middle of the valley.
Local Lifestyle
There is plenty of room to breathe. Sunnyvale Baylands Park offers wetlands trails along the bay, while Las Palmas Park, Ortega Park, and Washington Park serve neighborhoods across the city with sports courts, playgrounds, and picnic areas. Excellent bike infrastructure and Caltrain access make getting around easy.
Dining, Shopping and Things to Do
The historic core along Murphy Avenue is the city’s social heart, a pedestrian street of restaurants, breweries, and one of the region’s largest weekly farmers markets. The adjacent downtown redevelopment around Plaza del Sol continues to add dining and gathering space.
Schools
Sunnyvale is served by a range of well-regarded public schools, including Homestead High School and Fremont High School serving parts of the city. Central location and solid schools make it a practical choice for families. (Please confirm the specific school assignment for any given address, as boundaries vary.)
