There are very significant reasons that this area has remained consistently popular and one of those reasons is the diverse selection of homes available.

Marin County, CA homes for sale are oftentimes sought by those who live in San Francisco and either want some distance from the city itself or who want an easier commute than what they would have from the East Bay or from Contra Costa County.
