By Ken DeLeon
Cities of Silicon Valley

With stunning hillside views, proximity to some of the state’s top schools, and a myriad of spots for outdoor recreation, Monta Vista (meaning “mountain view” in Portuguese), is one of Cupertino’s most highly sought-after neighborhoods. Originally hosting orchards and vineyards, in the 1940s, Monta Vista became the first housing tract in the Cupertino area. The neighborhood attributes its popularity to its desirable location, low crime rates, and high-performing schools.
