Once shaped by orchards and aerospace at nearby Moffett Field, it is now a diverse tech hub with a welcoming, down‑to‑earth community vibe and a mix of new apartments and mid‑century homes. New renters find coffee spots and global eats near Murphy Avenue, craft pints at Faultline Brewing Company and The Halford, the Saturday Sunnyvale farmers market, and convenient shopping at CityLine Sunnyvale and nearby neighborhood markets. Fair Oaks Park’s recent upgrade added big lawns, sports courts, and playgrounds, while Baylands trails are an easy ride for birding and breezy sunsets. It is pet friendly and popular with young professionals and families, with Caltrain close and quick highway access for easy commuting. Per Zillow Rental Manager market trends in recent months, median asking rent sits in the mid $3,000s, with most listings ranging from the upper $2,000s to mid $4,000s.
