Alamo is an unincorporated community in Contra Costa County, in the San Ramon Valley between Walnut Creek and Danville. It is known for larger lots, established neighborhoods and a semi-rural feel along I-680. Below is what to know about buying in Alamo, along with the homes for sale right now.
Because Alamo is not a city, Contra Costa County handles land use, permits and road maintenance, and the Alamo Municipal Advisory Council advises the county on local matters. Homes are mostly single-family houses, many on larger lots.
Most commuters use I-680. There is no BART station in Alamo; the nearest is Walnut Creek BART to the north. The Iron Horse Regional Trail, run by the East Bay Regional Park District, runs through Alamo for walking and cycling.
Permits for remodels, additions and trees go through the county, not a town hall, and some services come from special districts such as the San Ramon Valley Fire Protection District. See what it means to live in unincorporated Contra Costa before you buy.
Alamo is served by the San Ramon Valley Unified School District. School assignments are address-specific and can change, so confirm the current assignment with the district for any home you are considering.
