Fremont, California: A City to Call Home
Along the far southeastern reaches of the San Francisco Bay just south of Oakland and just north of San Jose you'll find the city of Fremont, California. Originally settled by the Spanish in 1797, the towns arising around the mission eventually amalgamated in 1956 and took the name of explorer John C. Fremont. The post-war manufacturing boom and the turn-of-the-century technology boom both catalyzed Fremont's growth. There are now more than 200,000 people of all ethnic backgrounds who call Fremont home, making it the fourth most populous city in the Bay Area.
The manufacturing and high technology industries are still Fremont, CA's biggest sources of jobs. Major national companies like Lexar and Elitegroup Computer Systems have their headquarters in the city, while the joint Toyota/General Motors manufacturing plant is the largest employer in the city. Plenty of Fremont residents also work as educators. The city has a consistently high-ranking public school system as well as the Ohlone College, which focuses on specialized education for deaf or blind students.
