Martens-Carmelita, Mountain View

Martens-Carmelita

Though it’s just a few blocks off El Camino Real, Martens-Carmelita neighborhood has a rustic, rural feel that sets it apart from other areas in Mountain View. The atmosphere is reminiscent of the 1950s, when many of the homes were built.

Countless varieties of trees and shrubberies line the streets, which don’t have sidewalks. And every few houses, there’s a cluster of brightly painted mailboxes.
