About West
Side
West Side, located between U.S. 101 and the Santa Cruz Mountains foothills, is a residential and semi-rural Gilroy neighborhood with orchard edges and hillside views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the 1st Street and Monterey Street corridor, where independent taquerias, coffee counters, and small storefronts set a steady, local pace. Craftsman bungalows and mid-century ranch homes mix with larger-lot properties near the western edge. Downtown Gilroy’s historic core sits close by, tying daily routines to walkable blocks and civic spaces. Gilroy Gardens Family Theme Park and the Gilroy Center for the Arts act as cultural anchors for weekends and evenings. Trails and open space at Christmas Hill Park add a nature-forward counterpoint to the grid of older streets.
