Before you choose by distance
- Miles aren’t minutes. These are straight-line distances; drive it at rush hour, or try the bike or transit route, before you decide. Our Caltrain and VTA pages map homes near the stations.
- Check what’s planned nearby. Campuses grow, and new housing and buildings change traffic and parking; ask the city about projects near the streets you like.
- Many people who work or study here live farther out for more space or a lower price; compare a few cities in the City Match-Up.
How we counted
Closed sales of houses between October 28, 2024 and October 27, 2026 in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, reported to the MLS and read through the IDX feeds that power our home search, with repeat records from different feeds removed (normalized address plus sale date), measured from each sale’s map position to the campus map point, straight-line. Campus points are a single map point; large campuses spread well beyond it. Condos and townhomes aren’t in these figures because the sold feed doesn’t give their map positions. Past sales aren’t a forecast or the value of any one home.
