Talk to people who live in Tracy, whether newcomers or longtime residents, and you'll hear over and over again that it's an up-to-date suburb with an old town feel. Although most of the young professional families in this diverse city of 90,319 are homeowners, the latest real estate data shows 38% of the population live in rental apartments. While close to the San Francisco Bay Area, it remains untouched by the high cost of living that has made housing out of reach within San Francisco itself.

Once they settle in, they find it's a friendly city with a suburban feel, where downtown merchants they frequent soon call them by name. It's a young city with a median age of 33, many of whom are parents drawn here by the above-average Tracy public schools. Singles like the fact that there are several hip coffee shops as well as area parks for hiking and biking, and a plethora of one-of-a-kind restaurants serving both ethnic and all-American meals.
