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.
