Palo Alto, CA Apartments for Rent

Palo Alto, located in the northwestern corner of Santa Clara County, combines historic architecture with innovation and technology. Stanford University's presence and the area's tech heritage have shaped this community, where apartments for rent sit among tree-lined streets featuring Craftsman homes and mid-century buildings. Downtown areas along University Avenue and California Avenue offer local restaurants, shops, and cultural destinations including the restored 1925 Stanford Theatre and the Palo Alto Art Center.

Palo Alto residents have access to more than 30 parks, including the 1,940-acre Baylands Nature Preserve, known for its walking trails and bird watching opportunities. The city features two Caltrain stations connecting to San Francisco and San Jose, plus extensive bicycle paths throughout the community. While one-bedroom apartment rentals typically start around $2,800, the area offers public schools, outdoor recreation options, and comfortable weather patterns with temperatures averaging between 50-75 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the year.
