Longfellow is a North Oakland pocket where tree-lined streets, classic bungalows, and creative live-work spaces meet an easygoing, urban rhythm. Framed by neighbors like Temescal, Mosswood, and Golden Gate—with quick access to Emeryville—it puts you close to dining, design studios, and everyday conveniences while maintaining a friendly, residential feel.
Commuters appreciate the short hop to MacArthur BART, plus frequent AC Transit lines along San Pablo Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Way. Weekends are effortlessly filled: coffee runs and taquerias along San Pablo, pop-up markets, and neighborhood art walks. Green space is close by, from pocket parks to the sprawling playing fields and shady groves at Mosswood Park, ideal for pickup games, dog walks, and community events.
Families find solid educational pathways nearby. Emerson Elementary and Claremont Middle are well-known options, and many teens matriculate to Oakland Technical High School, a city flagship with robust academics and athletics. For study sessions or storytime, the Temescal Branch Library offers programs for all ages. Longfellow’s grassroots spirit shines through active neighborhood groups and block parties that make it easy to plug in, whether you’re a first-time buyer or planning your next move.
