SOMO Village Logo

SOMO Village is a mixed-use redevelopment of a former Agilent campus in Rohnert Park, California (40 miles (64 km) north of San Francisco). SOMO Village spans 200 acres in the foothills of Sonoma Mountain in Rohnert Park, California. [1]

The mixed-use development aims to cultivate a thriving community by fostering a healthy and sustainable way of life. With 1750 residential units ranging from single-family homes to cottages, condos and apartments, the development promises to offer diverse housing options for individuals and families. [1]

SOMO Village also features 600,000 square feet of an innovative business hub with a wellness focused coworking space (SOMO Cowork). Complementing this community is an array of thoughtfully curated amenities, including a community garden, concert and event venue, public art, Waldorf-inspired high school, and more. Future planned amenities include a fitness center with functional training, hot yoga and recovery area, coffee shop, day care, brewery, and more. [2]

Selected as the first One Planet Living Community in North America, SOMO Village has adopted the ten-principle framework covering social, environmental, and economic sustainability aspects.  The project is certified by the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Neighborhood Development (LEED-ND) and the development has also received the Governor’s Environmental and Economic Leadership Award (GEELA).
