Southgate opens onto tree-lined blocks where classic 1920s cottages and thoughtfully expanded homes share calm streets named for universities. Set just south of central Palo Alto and a quick spin from Stanford, the neighborhood delivers prized convenience without sacrificing a residential feel. Churchill Avenue leads straight to Stanford University and Palo Alto High School’s athletic fields, while El Camino Real and Alma Street keep regional commutes simple, especially with the California Ave Caltrain Station close by.
Weekends revolve around the lively California Avenue dining scene—browse the farmers’ market, sip coffee, and linger at independent eateries spotlighted by the city’s Discover Cal Ave hub. Green space is nearby at Peers Park, and curious minds flock to the hands-on Palo Alto Junior Museum & Zoo. Everyday essentials are easy to grab at Town & Country Village, just across from Paly.
Families appreciate access to the top-rated Palo Alto Unified School District and having Palo Alto High School right across Churchill. Southgate also sits near the character-filled streets of Old Palo Alto, Evergreen Park, and College Terrace, with jobs and culture throughout Santa Clara and neighboring tech hubs minutes away.
