Four Corners-Ygnacio Valley, located between Lime Ridge Open Space and Todos Santos Plaza, is a suburban and hillside Concord neighborhood with a trail-laced ridgeline and a low-key shopping corridor. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Treat Boulevard and Oak Grove Road crossroads, where cafes, local eateries, and everyday services cluster in a steady hum. Ranch-style houses and mid-century splits sit on curving streets, with pockets of newer townhomes near busier arterials. Lime Ridge Open Space frames the area with oak-studded paths and wide East Bay views. The Veranda adds a modern retail-and-dining promenade, while nearby Pixieland Amusement Park keeps a classic, small-scale feel. Ygnacio Valley Road ties it together as a practical spine for errands and commuting.

RS6
Residential Single-Family District
The RS district is applied to areas of the city appropriate for single-family residential uses in neighborhoods at densities of 2.5 to 10 units per net acre, subject to appropriate standards. The RS zoning districts generally apply to the single-family residential districts with development existing at the time of the adoption of this development code. The specific allowable density for each parcel is shown on the zoning map by a numerical suffix residential density designator RS-6 corresponding to the minimum lot size 6000. The RS district is consistent with and implements the low density residential (LDR) land use designation of the general plan.
