About Walnut Creek, CA

Walnut Creek combines the convenience of city life with the peacefulness of small-town living. This suburban community serves as the business and entertainment hub for the neighboring cities within central Contra Costa County, due in part to its location at the junction of the highways from Sacramento and San Jose (I-680) and San Francisco/Oakland (SR-24).
