Lots of homeowners in the neighborhood come for the location and stay for the community. Monta Loma is bounded by San Antonio Road, West Middlefield Road, Rengstorff Avenue and Central Expressway. There’s a shopping center in one corner that provides a coffee shop, dry cleaning, bank, restaurants with a Fresh ‘n Easy grocery store coming soon. Just across the freeway is Google’s campus, which has brought in some new neighbors in recent years, said Wouter Suverkropp, president of the Monta Loma Neighborhood Association.
