El Cerrito Hills, located between Arlington Boulevard and San Pablo Avenue, is a hillside and residential El Cerrito neighborhood with Bay views and winding, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Arlington Boulevard near Moeser Lane, where small storefronts, corner markets, and a steady flow of walkers set a lived-in, local rhythm. Mid-century ranch homes and view-oriented rebuilds share the slopes with tucked-away stairways and pocket gardens. Canyon edges and ridgelines shape daily routes, with quick climbs to outlooks and quieter blocks above the grid. El Cerrito Plaza anchors errands and transit, while nearby green space frames the hills in eucalyptus and open sky. Community touchstones include El Cerrito Natural Grocery, Cerrito Theater, and the El Cerrito Plaza Farmers’ Market.
