Without sacrificing any of its sense of community and small town feel, Menlo Park has earned a reputation for being a high-tech haven for some of the largest companies in the area.

Due to its proximity to Stanford, its high-tech roots and a strong sense of family, Menlo Park is a diverse community that takes pride for being an All-American city.

The downtown-shopping district is wonderful place to experience the diverse community of Menlo Park while enjoying sidewalk benches, cleverly decorated storefronts and delicious restaurants.

Founded in the 1850s and once known as the “Sleepy Hollow of California,” Menlo Park did not take off as a community until after World War II. Today, Menlo Park offers a suburban enclave with many urban amenities from the bustling downtown and strong public school district, to plenty of parks and recreation facilities.
