The land around the San Francisco Bay was first colonized in the late 1700s when the area fell under Spanish rule. Menlo Park was officially recognized as a community in 1854 after pioneers received large land grants and moved west to California. Today, Menlo Park is a rapidly growing community with a very progressive outlook. As the city has a prime location roughly halfway between San Francisco and San Jose, residents living in Menlo Park apartments can easily take advantage of the best services and cultural offerings in the region. With very strong business and community interests, Menlo Park makes a great home for people who desire the intellectual nature of Silicon Valley while wishing to live in a more low-key environment.

Kepler's Books is a local institution in Menlo Park and attracts people of all ages. With the old-time charm of an independent bookstore, the shop has a nostalgic quality that many find comforting.
