The area appeals to families and tech employees

Those looking for a place to settle where they’ll find a diverse range of shopping options, as well as parks and nearby freeway access, can add Calabazas to the list. This suburban neighborhood is located just a few miles south of Cupertino, which is home to tech employers such as Apple. As the area schools are well-regarded, many young families find it an appealing choice. Throughout the community, neatly landscaped yards are separated by hedges or knee-high fences. Many of the single-family homes have private driveways, but with a good mix of apartments, condos and townhouses in Calabazas, on-street parking is also common. Proximity to a diverse selection of shops and restaurants is another draw for homebuyers.

Stock up on groceries at H Mart or India Cash & Carry

Though the neighborhood is largely residential, South De Anza Boulevard, which runs through the community, has a wide variety of shopping and dining options. Some locals may find Trader Joe’s has the groceries they’re looking for, but others may find India Cash & Carry and H Mart have a more enticing selection. Anyone shopping for plants will find an equally varied selection. There is a garden center at Home Depot and Yamagami’s Garden Center is just south of State Route 85. “Customers can buy bonsai trees created by our staff or pick out their own bonsai starts and choose the pot that they like best,” says Kellyanne Cassell, a long-time area resident who has worked for Yamagami’s since 2017. “We also get in tropical fruit trees from southeast Asia, and we teach people how to grow, prune and fertilize them.” Area restaurants include Siam Thai Cuisine, Liuyishou Hot Pot and Bobbi's Coffee Shop & Café.
