About the Neighborhood

The Bushrod neighborhood of Oakland is found between Telegraph Ave. (to the east) and Martin Luther King Jr. Way (to the west), Woolsey Street (to the north) and Highway 24 (to the south). The neighborhood butts up against South Berkeley. The Rockridge neighborhood is located to the east, and Temescal to the south. Lake Merritt, downtown Oakland, and Joaquin Miller Park are all about a ten minute drive away.

Nearby Rockridge and Temescal neighborhoods have historically been pricier than Bushrod and North Oakland in general.  Buyers realize that they can get a little more for the money and still have basically the same services that nearby Rockridge and Temescal offer. With a central location and diversity of property types, Bushrod is a desirable area for homebuyers looking to put down roots in the city of Oakland. The neighborhood features everything from multi-unit buildings to craftsman and Tudor style homes built in the early 1900s, and it is mostly residential.

Also within the neighborhood, you’ll find Bushrod Park (one of the largest parks in North Oakland at 10.12 acres) and the Bushrod Recreation Center, which was constructed in 2000 and is equipped with a gymnasium, weight room, kitchen, play structure, lighted basketball and tennis courts, lighted football/soccer fields, baseball/softball field, and picnic areas. Major league baseball players Rickey Henderson, Frank Robinson and Vada Pinson, and A’s manager Billy Martin before them, honed their skills on the ballfields at Bushrod Park as youngsters. Their painted images adorn the recreation center.

The Bushrod neighborhood offers a strong sense of community, a central location, and proximity to transportation options. The Ashby BART station is just north of the neighborhood border about a 10 - 15 minute walk away. (Note: on weekends, the City of Berkeley sponsors a popular flea market in the parking lot.) The Rockridge BART station is just east of the neighborhood border, and is about a 15-20 minute walk away. The closest casual carpool pick-up is near the Rockridge BART Station
