The vibe
Refined suburban with old-money pockets (West Menlo, Atherton-adjacent) and tech-money pockets (Belle Haven proximity to Meta). Walkable downtown.
Who loves it
Tech families wanting the Peninsula's most refined small-town downtown + top schools, willing to pay a 30% premium over neighboring Mountain View.
What it isn't
Uniform. East Menlo (Belle Haven) is a separate market from West Menlo / Allied Arts.

Insider note from Roger
West Menlo Park (Allied Arts area) is the legacy money. Linfield Oaks and Felton Gables are the school sweet spots. Belle Haven is the under-priced pocket — Meta-driven appreciation has been significant.
