Blending identities as a bedroom community and major employment
center, San Ramon’s impressive growth over the past decade was the
result of a single decision. When developers decided to transform 580
acres of orchards into Bishop Ranch Business Park in the 1980s, the
complexion of the community changed.
Today, over 16,500 people are employed at the park, serving as the
regional headquarters for giants like Pacific Bell, Chevron, AT&T,
ROLM, and IBM. Domestic and international companies agree that San
Ramon has the right combination of “room to grow” and an excellent
innovative environment. The dizzying pace of prime development has
amazed long-time residents who still remember the days of driving to
Danville for groceries.
The construction of Interstate 680 further opened the area to
waves of new subdivisions and commercial growth. Among its impressive
amenities, San Ramon now claims several shopping centers, a hospital,
library, community center and senior center, a golf course, country
club, swimming pool and numerous parks.
Fortunately, the transition from a residential and agricultural
village into a bustling business center has been admirably planned and
controlled to maintain a quality image. Parks, fountains, waterfalls,
and acres of rolling lawns surround modern office buildings and
industrial parks to create a truly beautiful living environment.
East Bay regional recreational amenities are superb, providing
thousands of acres of prime wilderness, trails, and nature preserves.
