Welcome to Redwood City

Teeming with friendly neighbors and recreation, this dynamic city is on the rise
 
 
A welcoming city tucked between the sparkling Pacific Ocean and verdant Santa Cruz Mountains, Redwood City is on the up and up. It’s home to a uniquely historic-yet-contemporary vibe, as stately buildings are joined by elegant, modern construction and the opportunity to create a city that’s hard to say no to. Its climate is even better than other Bay Area cities, and it enjoys a temperate, sunny atmosphere almost every day of the year. Thriving, dynamic, and bustling, this city is on the cusp of becoming one of California’s gems on the coast. 
 
When curious about Redwood City’s vibe, one has to look no further than its home architecture. The neighborhoods are diverse and unique, from sprawling, spacious single-family homes to modern, luxurious condominiums and apartments that are beginning to pop up. The city is no stranger to luxury either. Opulent, comfortable homes can be found in neighborhoods such as Mount Carmel or Emerald Lake Hills. Whether you’re looking to live on the quiet lagoons in Redwood Shores or closer to the mountains, Redwood City and its excellent weather have someplace perfect for you. Add into that the number of architects in the area, and your dream home is right around the corner.

With attractive plating, cozy interiors, and authentic dishes, La Viga features classic entrees and appetizers with a casual vibe. On the other hand, head over to Vesta for hand-fired pizzas and small plates. With a modern, contemporary vibe, locals flock here for its wine and beer selection and top-tier pizza.
 
For distinct Mexican fare, grab a table at Milagros, where their authentic dishes can be paired with iconic blue agave tequila for a night to remember. Or, travel to the other side of the world with a delicious bowl of ramen from Marufuku, which boasts dark, warm interiors and delicious cuisine. 
 

Things to Do

Redwood City is packed to the brim of excitement and burgeoning opportunity. Recreation is around every corner, from movie theaters to parks.
 
Golden fields and verdant forests alike can be found at Edgewood Park and Preserve, where natural beauty is as real as the fun you can have in it. Stulsaft Park is nothing to scoff at. With over 40 acres of natural escape, including trails, a playground, and courts, there’s always something to do here. 
 
The community turns out for the countless fun events and live music celebrations held at Redwood City’s Courthouse Square. Of course, hosting your own event or simply trying out some new, delicious wine is made easy as pie at La Honda Winery. Sip a beverage grown right from California wine country while basking in the natural beauty that is Redwood City.
