Nestled
between the San Francisco Bay and the coastal
hills, Oakland's got it all: balmy temperatures
hovering in the 60s, world-class arts and
entertainment, top-flight restaurants and
hotels, and an abundance of recreation.
What's more, prices here are among the most
reasonable in the area. Oakland is a modern-day
boomtown with a rich cultural heritage.
Once home to Ohlone Indians, Mexican rancheros,
and gold seekers, it's now a haven for high
tech and dot-coms. It's also one of the
nation's most ethnically integrated cities:
Oaklanders speak more than 100 languages
and dialects. And, of course, leisure and
business travelers alike enjoy our proximity
to San Francisco, Wine Country, and Silicon
Valley. You can get anywhere from here.
