Since its founding in 1777, San Jose has grown into the tenth-largest city in the country and the third largest in the state of California. Many tech companies call South Jose home, attracting an abundance of professionals and an energetic workforce from all over the nation. Slightly less expensive than San Francisco, which lies just one hour north by car, South San Jose has become home to a diverse community who appreciate more affordable rent while still living in a big city. South San Jose is located just east of Los Gatos and is about three miles south of downtown. However, this district does not sacrifice natural beauty for city life with its many parks, walking trails, and bike paths like Santa Teresa County Park.
