Charleston Meadows, Palo Alto

charleston_meadows

The tree-lined streets, parks and ubiquitous single-story wood-frame homes of Charleston Meadows attract families with children.

The neighborhood association holds community-building events at least once annually, to bring residents together and to raise their awareness about the current challenges affecting Charleston Meadows, most recently meeting at Robles Park for the annual elections.

With 55 neighborhood homes by the Caltrain corridor, Charleston Meadows residents have a stake in shaping the plans of the rail authority as they plan the route, elevation and tracking through Palo Alto.

Part of what Charleston Meadows aims to protect is the small-town feel that residents say inspires neighborliness.
