Clinton
What it’s like to live in Clinton
Lakeside accessibility defines Clinton, where Oakland's northeastern neighborhood surrounds Lake Merritt with its popular 3.4-mile walking path and bird sanctuary. The district features distinctive architecture from Victorian to Art Deco at more reasonable rates than San Francisco alternatives despite similar urban amenities. Though some commercial corridors show varied investment levels, excellent public transportation including multiple BART stations creates car-optional living with straightforward San Francisco access. The combination of architectural character, lake proximity creating unexpected urban natural beauty, and strategic positioning between downtown Oakland employment and East Bay amenities makes this district particularly appealing for professionals seeking urban energy without San Francisco rental premiums increasingly requiring substantial financial compromises.

City Guide for Oakland, CA
"Growing up in northern California has had a big influence on my love and respect for the outdoors. When I lived in Oakland, we would think nothing of driving to Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz one day and then driving to the foothills of the Sierras the next day." - Tom Hanks
