Known as "The City of Good Living," San Carlos is located just 25 miles south of the Bay area on the San Francisco Peninsula, which is equidistant between the major cities and metro areas of San Francisco and San Jose. Its approximate 28,000 residents enjoy an ideal climate, a terrific school system, a charming downtown shopping district, excellent restaurants with a variety of cuisines, a modern industrial and commercial area, an abundance of open space and lovely homes.
Located in the northern portion of the Silicon Valley, San Carlos is a budding technology center full of friendly people with an engaging community atmosphere. The east side of the city maintains a thriving industrial area with successful small and large businesses - much of the success is due to a supportive city government and easy accessibility to transportation.
There are two hospitals located in Redwood City within four miles of San Carlos are the: Sequoia Hospital and Kaiser Hospital. The city's Airport is a local aviation airport with a control tower and 2,600 ft runway. However, with the San Francisco International Airport located only just 11 miles to the north and the San Jose International Airport just 25 miles to the south, the town is a convenience to the commuter and the frequent traveler.
The real estate market options in San Carlos feature a mixture of well-maintained houses for sale and condominiums as well as beautiful townhomes available to buy.
