Clearfield Park San Carlos Homes and Neighborhood Guide

San Carlos neighborhood guide

Clearfield Park is the east side of San Carlos, between El Camino Real and the business district that runs toward Industrial Road and US 101. It is sometimes called Greater East San Carlos. The Caltrain line runs along its western edge, so the station and the north end of Laurel Street are a short walk for many homes.

Residential blocks here sit beside offices, labs, service shops and light industry, a mix that reflects San Carlos's long history as an early electronics center. Laureola Park, on the site of the former Laureola School, is the only city park east of El Camino Real and hosts Little League and youth soccer. The Hiller Aviation Museum at the San Carlos Airport and the freeway are both minutes away.
