Located in the middle of Silicon Valley, Sunnyvale is the seventh most populous city in the San Francisco Bay Area. It was incorporated on December 24, 1912 and is bordered by Mountain View, Santa Clara and Cupertino.

The city of around 140,000 residents has easy access to transportation with CalTrain having a major stop in the center of town. Additionally Sunnyvale lies conveniently between highway 101 and 280 and is only 15 minutes from Mineta San Jose International Airport.

Sunnyvale is also one of the safer cities in the country. Many believe this is due to their unique approach to public safety. Sunnyvale is one of the few cities in the country that has a unified department of public safety. This means every public safety employee is trained as a firefighter, police officer and EMT. They can respond to any crisis, in any capacity.
