Vallejo By the Numbers
The City of Vallejo is located in Northern California, 30 miles northeast of San Francisco, 60 miles southwest of Sacramento, 70 miles north of Silicon Valley, and 385 miles north of Los Angeles.
Vallejo is the largest city in Solano County and the tenth most populous city in the San Francisco Bay Area, with approximately 122,000 residents.
We are home to the first naval base on the West Coast, Mare Island, and several well-acclaimed higher-education campuses, Touro University, private non-profit health professions graduate school; the California State University Maritime Academy, the only maritime academy on the West Coast; and the Vallejo Center campus of Solano County Community College.
Vallejo is also emerging as a commuter hub, as it is home to the busiest Ferry terminal in the Bay Area, with more than 1.2 million riders a year. The direct high-speed ferry connects Vallejo to downtown San Francisco and SF BART stations that connect riders to various cities in the greater Bay Area. As one of the last affordable cities in the Bay Area to invest in a home or business, Vallejo is a prime location for families and businesses to thrive
