Birdland delivers a uniquely cohesive slice of west Sunnyvale, where streets named for finches, swallows, and wrens form an easy-to-navigate grid and neighbors actually know each other. At its heart is Raynor Park, a beloved gathering spot with playgrounds, open lawns, and shaded picnic areas that make weekend pick-up games and birthday parties a regular sight. Just across Wolfe Road, the striking Apple Park Visitor Center invites residents to grab a coffee on the rooftop terrace and take in the ring’s architecture.
Families prize Birdland for its access to the Santa Clara Unified School District, with neighborhood students commonly attending Laurelwood Elementary, Peterson Middle, and Wilcox High; the district’s commitment to academics and enrichment is well regarded throughout the area. Learn more about the district’s programs and calendars directly from the Santa Clara Unified School District.
Commuters appreciate Birdland’s practical location: Lawrence Expressway, I‑280, and El Camino Real are within minutes, and the Lawrence Caltrain Station keeps Peninsula and San Francisco trips straightforward. Shopping, fitness, and diverse dining cluster along Homestead and El Camino, while nearby Cupertino, Santa Clara, and Mountain View expand the options for nightlife, parks, and employer campuses.
