Livermore Location

Livermore 's location in the east San Francisco Bay area gives us some of the finest weather to be found anywhere. We have less fog than the coast, milder temperatures than the Central Valley, and fewer rainy days than just about anywhere around the Bay. We're close enough to the Silicon Valley  for commuters, yet far enough away to remain an affordable place to live.

Our weather and proximity to work opportunities of all kinds provide a perfect environment for Livermore to be a thriving, growing, and commercially viable community. This map shows you where to find us:
