A little bit about Marin County: (scroll down for Sonoma Valley ) Marin County Real Estate is popular because it is an exceptional place to live. It's that simple. Marin County offers spectacular natural beauty, mild weather, the best in public and private schooling , as well as excellent air and water quality, world-class shopping and restaurants, an educated and open-minded population, close proximity to major cities and airports (like Oakland and San Francisco ), the original Northern California wine country , culture , lakes , the ocean --you name it. These are only some of the reasons that make the lifestyle, and the real estate, so desirable in marvelous Marin County . Marin County is located in Northern California , and got its name because it is surrounded by water, except the Northern border which adjoins Sonoma County . Marin County is a peninsula, connected to San Francisco by the Golden Gate Bridge and to the East Bay by the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge . The western border is the Pacific Ocean and the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), which is largely preserved open space, dotted with little towns. Every town in Marin County is unique with it's own flavor. Sausalito is the Southernmost City, at the opposite end of the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco. Next town up is Mill Valley , rated one of ten of the most desirable places to live by CNN/Money Magazine , and home to celebrities like Sammy Hagar (the Rock Star, of course!), Peter Coyote, Robin Williams, and Jill Eikenberry and Michael Tucker (both of LA Law fame). Tiburon is East of Mill Valley, and the Spanish word for "shark". Adjacent to Tiburon is Belvedere , an island whose residents boast the highest income per capita in the Country. Then, Corte Madera , which is loosely translated as "cut wood". Larkspur is North of Corte Madera and also the name of an indigenous flower. Kentfield and Greenbrae are next, considered unincorporated Marin County, and they share the same zip code (94904). Another high profile town is Ross , with large (often Turn of the Century) homes, on large lots, with well-known residents like Sean Penn and Huey Lewis. Then there's San Rafael , the largest City in the County and the County Seat. West of San Rafael is San Anselmo , the Antique Capital of the County, as well as the town that George Lucas calls home. Fairfax is West of San Anselmo, and is home to the most night life of any town in Marin County. Fairfax also offers movie theaters, organic groceries, tied dyed t-shirts and incense.
