About Alamo, Danville & Diablo
Alamo is a wonderful little town--both charming and historic. Alamo is the most tranquil and "off the beaten path" area in the San Ramon Valley Community. It adjoins Danville and Walnut Creek, and remains one of the least populated towns, hosting fewer residences than most of the other towns in Contra Costa County, so there's a true country feel to the area. The year 1852 marked the San Ramon Valley's first post office and the only post office between Martinez and Mission San Jose. Most of the homes are located on l/2 acre properties that were once orchards and wheat fields. It boasts the steepest paved road in Contra Costa County, which is Castle Crest Road. It climbs a third of Mt. Diablo's west face, rivaling Filbert Street in San Francisco. Alamo's heavily landscaped terrain and valleys provide seclusion and serenity for residents enjoying a quieter pace of living in the area. Community activities center around the two shopping centers across from one another in the middle of town. There, you'll find just about everything you need!
If shopping for unique gifts and antiques interests you, Danville is heaven! Quaint boutiques abound. There are also many cute restaurants that provide both indoor and outdoor dining, as well as several excellent playhouses and theatres.
