Boulevard Way, Walnut Creek

Boulevard Way is the major artery that you can take right when you get off Highway 24 when you get off at Mt. Diablo Blvd. It heads south in the direction of the small area known was Rossmoor. The neighborhood Boulevard Way bisects is technically known as Saranap, though not even people who live there will know what you are talking about unless they live on the street with that name.

This area is basically packed--like much of the edges around Walnut Creek’s commercial district--with a mix of apartment complexes and nice homes. The apartments around here are relatively affordable for the area. You can get one and two bedroom apartments for around $1500.

The homes, of course, are a completely different matter. Homes around here sell for around $700K. (Condos however go for under $200k--so there is a big difference.)

The benefit of living here is that you get the great Walnut Creek Schools and safety at a relatively affordable rent. You are also very close to the BART station and well-positioned most commutes. And, on top of all that, all of the restaurants, stores, movie theaters and nightspots of Walnut Creek are just a short walk away. So you absolutely have the best all worlds in one spot.
