We’re delighted by the news that Pleasanton made CNN Money’s list of America’s Top 100 Places to Live. Our fair city ranked 63rd on the list and was the only Bay Area city to make the cut.
Among Pleasanton’s most desirable traits, the magazine highlighted our family-oriented town, its proximity to San Francisco and called our school district one of the strongest in the state. Among our other highlights: 40 parks “peppered with sports fields,” 22 miles of scenic trails and our soon-to-open Firehouse Arts Center. We love this town!

California’s standardized test results are in and once again, Pleasanton’s schools scored among the best in the state.
Twelve of our schools are in the top 10 percent in performance. The state’s standard for excellence is 800 and most Pleasanton schools were over 900. The district as a whole scored 901 on the API. It is these types of scores that continue to contribute to Pleasanton’s strong real estate market. Our buyers are consistently drawn to Pleasanton because they are specifically looking for schools that score over 800 on the standardized testing.
