Location
 Redwood
City is located in the Bay Area 25 miles south of San Francisco,
and about 27 miles north of San Jose. It is approximately
19 square miles in land area with a mean elevation of 15 feet
above sea level. Our community combines residential, industrial,
and commercial elements in a largely urban environment. The
City is easily accessible from Highways 101 and 280, and extends
from the San Francisco Bay shoreline to the hillsides of the
Santa Cruz Mountains.
Getting to Downtown Redwood City is a snap! We have easy
freeway access, and also are well connected to regional transit
systems. We are located in San Mateo County on the center
of the San Francisco Peninsula.

and then turn right on Middlefield Road. After another half-mile
