About Hayward
Living in Hayward, CA
Hayward is a city in the East Bay region, which is a part of the San Francisco Bay Area that includes Oakland and Berkeley.

Just 14 miles south of Oakland and 25 miles southeast of San Francisco, Hayward is conveniently located near major metropolitan areas that can be accessed via Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART).
Hayward is close to a stunning selection of outdoor activities and getaway spots. When you rent in Hayward, you're less than 30 miles from the gorgeous seaside community of Half Moon Bay, and about 45 miles from the redwoods and scenic hiking at Muir Woods National Monument in Marin County. Wine Country opulence awaits in Sonoma County and Napa Valley, which are roughly 70 miles away. Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park are both a three-hour drive away.
