In Short – Don't let the small-town atmosphere or the pedestrian-friendly downtown fool you--Los Gatos is all about hip. erecting starter mansions up into the hills. High-end antique shops, bistros and coffee houses along Santa Cruz Avenue cater to the locals' needs, and the town sponsors enough bike and running races to show off the locals' near-supernatural athletic prowess. An old-fashioned candy shop and Dolce Spazio gelato keep things sweet, while the rest of the avenue is devoted to broad range of clothing boutiques and antiques stores.
