Better Living, Better Lawn Care in Palo Alto
The city has a population of approximately 67,000 in a 26-square-mile area thatβs ideally located near all modes of transportation. Youβll find plenty of bicycle paths throughout the city, and heading to the airport via a shuttle, car or bus is also convenient to all three international airports. The bustling, small city's commuter rail system is another transportation plus for locals and visitors.
When you hear of Palo Alto, you may immediately think of the birthplace of Silicon Valley where cutting-edge, high-tech giants like Google and Facebook were founded and Nobel Prize winners are born. Of course, thereβs also the prestige of Stanford University with its strong educational and cultural assets and the handsome Stanford campus.
Palo Alto is a well-rounded community where people concern themselves with maintaining urban sustainability. Approximately one-third of the city is open space. There are 28 neighborhood parks to explore, picnics, exercise the dog, play basketball, tennis or skate around.
The Baylands Nature Preserve is a favorite in town and features one of the best bird-watching areas on the west coast. The city offers nature walks and ecology programs here. You can also enjoy walking, running or biking along 15 miles of beautiful trails. Did we mention windsurfing and boating?

Dining and shopping are major draws to the city, and itβs easy to see why. The pretty tree-lined streets, small-town atmosphere and handsome architecture give way to little coffee shops and bookstores, outdoor cafes, two downtown movie theatres and numerous eateries and boutiques.
It is a vibrant community and a safe place to live in, and people there take pride in their neighborhoods. The public schools are highly rated, the nightlife is considered first-rate, and the city is a diverse community and one of the best places to live in California.
