Hayward Highland, located between Hayward Hills and Downtown Hayward, is a residential and hillside Hayward neighborhood with winding streets and broad Bay-facing viewpoints. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Cal State East Bay campus edge near Carlos Bee Blvd and Harder Rd, where students, hikers, and commuters stream past trailheads and campus facilities. Mid-century ranch homes and split-levels sit alongside newer infill on sloped lots, giving many blocks a terraced feel. Greenbelts and stair-step streets connect to ridgeline paths and canyon pockets. Weekends often center on campus events and nearby open-space walks. Local staples like the Greenhouse Café, the Douglas Morrisson Theatre, and the Hayward Area Historical Society add a distinctly Hayward cultural thread.

PD
Planned Development District
The purpose of the PD District is to: Encourage development, redevelopment, and rehabilitation, which through efficient and attractive space utilization emphasizes conservation, open space, and recreational amenities, and which is harmonious with the natural characteristics of the land, including topography, ponds, rock outcroppings, significant tree clusters, and ridge tops.; Establish development procedures and standards whereby such lands may be developed most appropriately to maintain and enhance the natural and man-made advantages of such sites.; Foster well designed residential and nonresidential development, encouraging projects incorporating a variety of housing types or combinations of residential and nonresidential uses by allowing diversification in the relationship of uses, buildings, architectural design, lot sizes, yard areas, and open spaces which may not be achievable under other zoning districts.; Planned Development Districts are intended to carry out the policies and objectives of the General Plan, Design Review Guidelines, the Hillside Design Guidelines, and the Landscape Beautification Plan and to meet the standards necessary to satisfy the requirement for public health, safety, and general welfare.
Local insights from Redfin agents
The median sold price dropped to $860K, but price-per-square-foot actually went up. Buyers are just buying smaller, nicer homes. Use the "falling prices" headline to negotiate hard on larger, dated properties.
Hayward's fall market offers fantastic value for East Bay buyers. With median prices holding around $845K and homes averaging 20 days on market, you have breathing room to negotiate on older homes. Yet pristine, turnkey properties still move fast....
