Overview for Portola Valley

With narrow roads leading visitors to explore what’s around the corner, Portola Valley feels miles away from Silicon Valley, yet as the proverbial crow flies, it is less than a mile from Interstate 280 and less than 2 miles from the center of Stanford University. The town began its existence as a logging town and gets its name from Spanish military officer Gaspar de Portola, who became the first governor of Upper California.
 
The town of Portola Valley was incorporated in 1964 with the goal of preserving the beauty of the valley, fostering low-density housing, and limiting services to those necessary for local residents. Many of its developments have limited ridgetop buildings to preserve the natural environment. Coyote, wild turkey, and deer sightings are common in people’s yards. To this day, the town’s goal is to maintain a balance between the rural, and the need for modern development.
