ATHERTON
Welcome to Atherton, a highly sought-after community in the heart of the San Francisco
Peninsula and named by Forbes magazine as one of the most expensive zip codes in the country.
Atherton is home to many chief executive officers, venture capitalists, and founders of Silicon
Valley’s many high-tech companies. Only six square miles, the town is covered with native live
oaks, redwoods, cedars, and pine trees, offering a feel of seclusion and privacy, yet close in
location to top-rated schools, and neighboring Menlo Park with vibrant downtown amenities.
Plus, Atherton is just minutes to Silicon Valley venture capital firms and is midway between two
international airports. Beautiful Holbrook-Palmer Park is a 22-acre garden setting with indoor
and outdoor facilities for recreation and private events.
