About Downtown Oakland

The city of Oakland is located in the Bay Area of California, in the US. Although in Oakland one can't find the numerous tourist amenities present in its famous neighbor San Francisco or the suburban safety of San Jose, there are still many ways of spending a good time here. One might find negative opinions on Oakland, from people who have neither lived in nor even visited the city. However, Oakland is probably the most diverse city and undervalued cultural center in the US. If nothing else, one can just enjoy what Rand McNally rated as the best weather in the country.

Oakland offers beautiful and interesting neighborhoods, as well as eccentric, shopping districts. Just like New York, Oakland is composed of various village-like neighborhoods, all of which contain a mixture of cultures and people. A popular district is Rockridge; it is a little eccentric town of tree-lined streets, with renovated craftsman bungalows. The heart of Rockridge and also its main street is College Avenue; it goes between Claremont and Broadway, and it houses numerous charming boutiques, bookstores, and coffee shops, but also some of the Bay Area's most remarkable restaurants. Then there's the Upper Rockridge, a hilly domain of luxury homes and mansions, rebuilt after the devastating Oakland-Berkeley Hills fire of 1991. In upper Rockridge you can find some of Oakland's most beautiful, but also most expensive homes. Different styles are to be found here, from Mediterranean (Spanish, French Provencal, Tuscany) to English Tudor, with a few glaring examples of high modern. The views of Oakland and San Francisco Bay are extraordinary.
