“We love this area because it has so much to offer. Beautiful parks, awesome walking and biking trails, great restaurants/shopping and amazing schools. Mid Peninsula residents are also a short drive away from our amazing coast and beautiful beaches along with our amazing large cities (San Francisco and San Jose)."
