Saratoga Neighborhoods
Saratoga has no official neighborhood map; its commonly used names, several coined by real estate agents, fall into the historic Village and wooded foothills to the west and south, the north side between Prospect Road and Highway 85, and the east side between Saratoga Avenue, Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road and Cox Avenue. Public schools are split among the Saratoga Union, Campbell Union, Cupertino Union and Moreland elementary districts and the Los Gatos-Saratoga, Fremont Union and Campbell Union high school districts, so assignments vary by address.
