Why Live in the Willow Glen Area of San Jose? Here Are A Few Reasons Why It's So Popular!

Willow Glen is an extremely popular area in San Jose which offers convenice, charm, and a strong sense of community. It is adjacent to downtown San Jose, and also borders the Cambrian Park area and the city of Campbell in Silicon Valley.

The "downtown area" mostly consists of the many stores, shops and restaurants along tree-lined Lincoln Avenue. Seen here is a snippet of that road, with the much loved and very famous children's bookstore, Hicklebee's.

Because this San Jose district is older, it's full of interesting architecture and real estate here is highly prized. Neighborhoods tend to be diverse looking and well kept with a lot of pride by the owners in keeping their homes up nicely. Many streets feature Craftsman or Spanish style homes. Others may have Victorians. Newer regions will include ranch style homes.
