Bushrod

A captivating blend of history and contemporary charm.

Welcome to Bushrod

The Bushrod neighborhood in North Oakland is a captivating blend of history and contemporary charm. Named after Ambrose Bushrod, an early landowner in the area, this neighborhood was originally developed in the late 19th century. Bushrod was primarily agricultural land before transitioning into a residential area.

Today, it boasts a mix of architectural styles, including Victorian-era homes, modern condominiums, and everything in between. By the late 2010s, the gentrification process drove Bushrod to become one of the hottest neighborhood markets in the United States.

The Bushrod neighborhood reflects the demographics of Oakland itself. It is diverse and embraces new residents as well as families who have lived here for generations. Ten-acre Bushrod Park is located between Shattuck Avenue and Racine Street to the east and west, and between 61st Street and 59th Street to the north and south. The neighborhood’s housing market has seen steady growth in recent years, attracting buyers with its central location and proximity to amenities. Demographically, Bushrod is a melting pot of cultures and backgrounds, reflecting Oakland’s renowned diversity.

Residents enjoy a strong sense of community, with local events and initiatives fostering connections among neighbors of all ages. Beyond its residential appeal, Bushrod benefits from its convenient access to transportation, parks, and recreational facilities. The neighborhood’s proximity to UC Berkeley and downtown Oakland makes it an attractive choice for students, academics, and professionals seeking a vibrant urban lifestyle.
