Historic charm pairs with ample tranquility in this growing Silicon Valley city
Between its picturesque downtown region — an area teeming with excellent eateries and adorable boutiques — and its slew of luxury properties, Sunnyvale has increasingly become one of the leading zip codes in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Voted one of the safest places to live in California, Sunnyvale has a lively, pleasant energy that renders it a perfect match for families with children. Its central location between the cities of Santa Clara and Mountain View makes it the perfect place for technology professionals, namely as the headquarters of LinkedIn. Residents have nearly effortless access to Northern California’s greatest attractions, including San Francisco, Muir Woods, Napa Valley, and Lake Tahoe.
Sunnyvale may be defined as a suburban community, but its dynamic demographic gives it a nuanced, anything-but-cookie-cutter feel. A slew of world-class restaurants, many representing several parts of the globe, underscores this. Twenty lush parks are also spread out around the city, allowing residents to relish time outside.
A large part of Sunnyvale’s charm is that it “fits” so many people. Whether you’re a college professor, an entrepreneur, a family of four, or a thriving single, you’ll be delighted with the city’s warmth and hospitality. You’ll often find your neighbors out and about on Murphy Avenue or walking their pups in one of the city’s pristine open green spaces. The residential areas here are quaint and picturesque, which lends itself well to a serene way of life.
Sunnyvale’s culinary scene reflects the city’s overall ethos. It’s casual and elegant at the same time, with an admirable assortment of both chill cafes and high-end restaurants. Many of them are on Historic Murphy Avenue, a lovely and verdant, tree-lined enclave brimming with wonderful eateries and indie boutiques. Arrive here for a lovely lunch al fresco or to peruse the latest fashions and home decor pieces.
Tao Tao is also a huge hit with Sunnyvale residents. The upmarket, chic venue features a range of sumptuous dishes, including honey walnut prawns and pork-filled pot stickers. Gumba’s Italian Restaurant has a colorful vibe and an amazing selection of pastas, pizza, salads & seafood. And when you need to pick up fresh produce or a deli-made dinner made with healthy ingredients, you’ll be pleased to know that Sunnyvale has one of the largest and most immaculate Whole Foods Markets in the Bay Area.
Sunnyvale is, first and foremost, an active city. The Bay Trail Sunnyvale is a popular spot for runners and cyclists, not only because it’s so well-kept but also because it provides expansive vistas of the countryside. For a delightful day with your pets, friends, and family, you’ll have plenty to smile about at Baylands Park, which presents more than 70 acres of trails and wetlands.
Sunnyvale’s annual Art & Wine Festival, hosted by the Sunnyvale Chamber of Commerce, is thrilling year after year. Now in its 49th year, it boasts live music by local performers, first-rate food and wine, and, of course, a bevy of breathtaking artwork.
The Sunnyvale Farmers’ Market is also not-to-be-missed. Here, you’ll discover a magnificent array of pasture-raised proteins and seasonal produce every Saturday, no matter if it’s rain or shine.
