Welcome to Fairfax

Lifestyle

When you purchase a home in Fairfax you are also purchasing history. There’s still a whiff of 1960’s counterculture in Fairfax, where the Jefferson Airplane once played softball with the Grateful Dead. If Fairfax feels like it is living in a time warp, that’s just fine with its residents, who have passed ordinances prohibiting chain stores, plastic bags, and styrofoam take out- food packaging.

Landscape

This town is just north of Mt. Tam, 30 minutes from San Francisco, less than 20 miles from Point Reyes, and is known as one of Marin County’s more affordable communities.

Essentials

The heart of Fairfax is Broadway Boulevard, which parallels with Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, the main traffic corridor heading west. Broadway is a perfect walking street where locals shop at Fairfax Coffee Roastery, purchase fresh local produce at the farmers market, and duck into Fairfax Variety for toys, tchotchkes, and candy. The art-deco movie theater and 19 Broadway Bar & Night Club are at the center of the action when it comes to nightlife in Fairfax.
