Authentic Hayward community with East Bay convenience

Longwood-Winton Grove is one of the most convenient suburban hubs in Hayward, known for its family-friendly, diverse nature, starter home opportunities and commuter-friendly location next to major East Bay thoroughfares. A few miles east of the San Francisco Bay, this Hayward suburb is bordered east by Interstate 880, which leads northwest to Oakland and sits north of Interstate 92, which travels west on the San Mateo Bridge. Hayward Executive Airport is right next door, and the Hayward BART station is one-and-a-half miles east. "Here you have a really convenient location, plus lots of family-sized homes, cooler weather near the Bay, and unlike the rest of Hayward, lots of independent eateries," says East Bay-area Compass realtor Katie Pratt. “It's a neighborhood where you can set down roots."

Starter homes and classic ranchers

The streets within the Longwood-Winton Grove neighborhood are wide, with narrowly paved sidewalks flowing from one subdivision to the next. Property trees are rare, but homes often display small front gardens and shrubbery. The housing inventory tends to be low in Longwood-Winton Grove, as proximity to the airport and the bridge make the neighborhood consistently popular with Peninsula commuters. Here, residents will be cooled off by the breezes of the nearby San Francisco Bay but will have to contend daily with noise from single-engine airplanes and corporate jets. Typical housing styles include classic ranchers and bungalows, and housing prices range between $700,000 and $1 million.

Advanced park playscapes and the San Lorenzo hiking trail

The neighborhood’s leafy, grassy Longwood Park is tucked behind Longwood Elementary School, sheltered by the shade of mature oaks and elms. The park features a playground, basketball court and paved walking paths. Hayward’s Kennedy Park is less than a mile away on Hesperian Boulevard, where residents can find a petting zoo, train, walking trails and picnic areas. A few miles away is the expansive and popular San Lorenzo Community Center Park, with a sprawling outdoor modern playground that includes a zipline for kids and adults, a rope tree house, giant slides and rock-climbing walls. Near the park’s edge is an outdoor exercise equipment area, and residents can go for a run or bike ride on the site’s connected San Lorenzo Trail, which traces the bay shoreline.

Southland Mall and local authentic eats

Amid a sprinkling of airport hotels, the major commercial artery here is West A Street, lined with independent restaurants like Taqueria El Indio, known for its authentic tacos and burritos. Nearby, Carmen & Family Bar-BQ is another local favorite and has been almond-wood-smoking barbecued meats on its in-house firepit since 1979. Neighborhood nightlife can be found at the Why Not Lounge, a casual cocktail bar with trendy neon lighting and a popular patio. West by the airport is the Cajun-style Shell Shock Seafood House and vegan Chinese eatery Veggie Lee. When looking to shop, Southland Mall is conveniently located just to the south. Past its more popular prime, the mall is still anchored by Macy’s, a Cinemark Century movie theater and chain eateries like Applebee’s. Residents can find grocery options within the neighborhood, such as Cardenas Markets and the corner store Royal Market. Costco sits to the northeast on Hathaway Avenue for large-scale grocery items, while the Filipino-specialty Island Pacific Seafood market is located just west on Hesperian Boulevard.

Downtown street parties and community festivals

Residents join together with the Hayward community for numerous annual events downtown. Hayward’s Latin Jazz Festival, which takes place in August, showcases some of the best live jazz performers in the region on multiple stages set up along the downtown streets. The Third Thursday Summer Street Party is another annual favorite, featuring a hot rod and classic cars show, live music, grab food and a popular beer and wine garden with local vendors. The Hayward Mariachi Festival arrives in September at the City Hall Plaza, where residents get to listen to mariachi music and watch Folklorico Dancers while enjoying local food and margarita stations.
