Atherton

Welcome to Atherton

Often ranked as one of the most affluent communities in the country, Atherton still conveys a charming small-town feel thanks to its size – just six square miles –and the towering oak, redwood, bay, cedar, and pine trees that line the streets. Atherton is unique because the town is entirely residential with no industrial land-use base, creating an intimate feel of community amongst its residents. Gated estate properties line the streets with most lots a minimum of one acre. Ideally located between San Francisco and Silicon Valley, Atherton offers easy access to and from the Bay Area’s leading tech centers and is close to top venture capital firms on Sand Hill Road. Plus, the exciting downtown amenities of Menlo Park are just moments away.
