Torrano/DUPLEX

Mission-Foothill lies in the eastern part of Hayward, where the city meets the rising terrain of the East Bay hills. The area’s warm, dry summers and cooler, wetter winters make outdoor plans seasonal, while nearby trails and open spaces offer ways to get outside. Mission Boulevard is a key local corridor, connecting neighborhood errands with Hayward’s wider dining and shopping options. The historic Mission San José, just south in Fremont, reflects the region’s Spanish and Mexican-era history. Local coffee shops and restaurants sit alongside everyday services, and Hayward’s downtown provides additional dining, arts and nightlife. Driving is common for reaching destinations across the East Bay; AC Transit buses and BART access in central Hayward offer alternatives. For the Mission-Foothill neighborhood, the median rent is $2,395 per month, with a typical range of $870 to $9,667, based on 21 active listings.
