Bay Area Real Estate
El Cerrito
has a very moderate climate like much of the
Bay Area. It
is difficult to beat the weather here with the
sun shining for most of the year. Many prefer
El Cerrito for the commuter location and excellent
public transportation with direct access to
the El Cerrito BART station, easy access to
interstate 80 and 580 along with AC Transit
service throughout the Bay Area. There is also
a direct line to San Francisco for those who
prefer to get to work without the stress of
battling the morning traffic. Those you like
to commute using the car have the option to
pick up carpoolers who line up at several stops
close by to take advantage of using the carpool
lane and avoiding the bridge toll. El Cerrito
is a widely diverse local community with just
about every ethnicity residing there. There
are nearly 7000 restaurants in El Cerrito and
just about every type of cuisine known to the
human race.
El Cerrito has immaculate
hills that wind up its twisted narrow streets.
There are several million-dollar homes there
surrounded by plush and serene surroundings.
Many of the homes in the hills offer breath-taking
views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the San
Francisco Bay. El Cerrito is very close to the
Bay Meadows Race Track with many residents flocking
here to watch the horse races.
El Cerrito is
also known for being home to the Bay Area Bands
Metallica and Creedence Clearwater Revival.

crime, great public transportation and fantastic
views. It has been rated by CNN money as one
of the best places to retire in California.
