About halfway between San Francisco and Modesto, Livermore’s local economy represents some of California’s oldest and youngest industries: the city is home to two major DOE laboratories and was the site of the state’s first commercial vineyards (several world-class wineries still operate there today).
The downtown area along First Street is a gorgeous tree-lined corridor of cafes, shops, and entertainment venues. Two ACE train stations in town give residents easy access to practically anywhere in the region. The local schools are top-notch and several quality parks are scattered throughout the community.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
