The neighborhood straddling Alameda de las Pulgas is alternately known as West Menlo or University Heights (also known on the MLS as County/Alameda). West Menlo is in an unincorporated area of Menlo Park, and residents rely on San Mateo County for services and local governance. West Menlo is different from most of the other Menlo Park neighborhoods in that lot sizes are smaller, typically about 6,000 square feet, resulting in homes that are closer together.
