Founded back in 1777, San Jose is the seat of Santa Clara County, one of the most prosperous counties in California and the U.S. It’s also the third-largest city in the state and the 10th largest in the country.

The city has grown from being an agricultural community to manufacturing military equipment in WWII, then hosting aerospace and other tech industries, and now being the capital of Silicon Valley.

Not only is San Jose known for being home to a wealth of famous IT companies, but it also boasts the highest real estate prices in the United States. Additionally, it’s reckoned to be one of the country’s most ethnically diverse areas.

The city’s 60 miles of hiking trails and 285 miles of on-street bikeways are popular with visitors and locals alike. San Jose also celebrates its prominent place in the world of technology with museums, tours and related events.

West San Jose is bounded to the north by the city of Santa Clara and is known nowadays as an upscale residential neighborhood, especially in its westernmost part.
