Downtown Danville is the walkable heart of Danville, where Hartz Avenue hums from morning espresso to late dessert. Independent boutiques, patios shaded by heritage trees, and seasonal events give everyday errands a little sparkle. On Saturdays, the Danville Farmers’ Market brings local growers and live music. History buffs drop into the Museum of the San Ramon Valley, readers settle into the light-filled Danville Library, and cyclists catch the Iron Horse Regional Trail that threads through town. Evenings often include a show or exhibit at the Village Theatre and Art Gallery, anchoring a lively arts calendar.
Families value the high-performing San Ramon Valley Unified School District; Downtown is served by Montair Elementary and nearby San Ramon Valley High School, both known for strong academics and community involvement. Parks, play areas, and pocket plazas make quick outdoor breaks easy between school, sports, and supper. Commuters appreciate quick access to I‑680 and BART connections via Walnut Creek, with major employment centers in San Ramon close by; scenic drives to Alamo and the rest of Contra Costa add weekend options.
