Piedmont
Piedmont is a small, affluent residential community that is notable for its charming homes and estates, tree-lined streets and top-ranked public schools. Although primarily a residential community, it enjoys the abundance of cultural and recreational activities of its larger neighbors, Oakland and Berkeley. Piedmont is a “city within a city”, as it is completely surrounded by Oakland, yet retains a small town life enhanced by first rate city services, including its own fire, police, public works and school system. Located just minutes from San Francisco, Emeryville, and the Oakland financial district, Piedmont remains one of the top choices for executives and professionals who want to enjoy community and family life while remaining close to large centers of commerce.
