Is Ross a good place to live?

What are the best neighborhoods in Ross?

Ross is small enough that its neighborhoods blend together, but the town breaks into a few distinct zones. East Side Ross (Wellington and Baywood area) is known for its historic charm and walkability to downtown San Anselmo. West Side Ross (Shady Lane, Fernhill, Lagunitas, Upper Road, and Southwood) is considered the premier location, valued for proximity to the schools and home to many legacy estates. The Laurel Grove, Makin Grade, and Winding Way area offers easier access to Sir Francis Drake Boulevard with a mix of architectural styles and Mount Tamalpais views. Sir Francis Drake itself is popular with buyers just starting their search in Ross. And the Ross-San Anselmo border combines the Ross address with easy access to San Anselmo's cafes, shops, and community events.

How is the commute from Ross to San Francisco?

By car, Ross reaches San Francisco in about 25 to 30 minutes off-peak, longer during rush hour. There's no direct transit, so most residents drive or use the Larkspur Ferry for a scenic, traffic-free alternative.

What are the schools like in Ross?

The Ross School District operates a single, highly rated K-8 public school with small class sizes and strong community support. For high school, families choose between Redwood High School in Larkspur and Branson School, a highly selective private school located in Ross itself.
