San Joaquin County offers a unique blend of rural and urban qualities. Located at the heart of California’s rich San Joaquin Valley just east of the San Francisco Bay Area and south of Sacramento, San Joaquin County is positioned for significant economic expansion with an active inland port, County regional airport, several major freeways, and an expanding commuter and freight rail system. It is within a reasonable freeway commute from Modesto, the East Bay, Manteca, Lodi, Sacramento, and the Mother Lode. More than 75 languages are spoken within this culturally and ethnic diverse region. Suburban and rural housing opportunities are plentiful. The median home price in Stockton is $330,000. The climate consists of mild, snowfree winters and warm, dry summers that are offset by cool evening breezes from the Pacific Ocean
