"Out where the crosses of San Carlos / shine 'neath a desert moon / near the canyons where Geronimo rode / and the ocatillo blooms." (-Tom Russell, "Crosses of San Carlos")

San Carlos is a small community located between Redwood City and Belmont. The town's motto sums things up nicely by calling it "The city of good living." That's exactly what this place helps the nearly 30,000 residents do: live well.

Moving to San Carlos

This is California after all, and housing here is always at a premium. You will find renting an apartment here a bit easier than in some California cities, but it's still better to be prepared. Show up armed with copies of your credit report, references from your past landlords and proof of income. A letter of reference from your employer is also good. If you have pets, have the previous landlord reference what a good pet you have, just to make things easier. Be prepared to sign on the dotted line (and the check) immediately because if you wait, you may lose out on the apartment you want.

What It Will Cost

Take a deep breath and remember that this is California, and San Carlos is not even close to being as expensive as other towns and cities in the state. That said, be ready to part with up to $2000 for a 1 bedroom apartment in San Carlos, more if it's on the water. For 3 bedroom apartments or 4 bedroom rentals, you are looking at around $5000 per month.

San Carlos Neighborhoods
