Castro Valley

Castro Valley has served as an agricultural community in eastern Alameda County since the mid-19th century. Set between the East Bay hills and the developed plain leading toward San Francisco Bay, it remains an unincorporated community rather than an incorporated city. Lake Chabot, just north of the centre, is a reservoir within Lake Chabot Regional Park, where trails follow oak woodland and shoreline. The name recalls Guillermo Castro, whose 1840 Rancho San Lorenzo Mexican land grant encompassed much of the present-day area. Local shopping districts and residential streets sit close to regional parkland and Bay Area transport corridors.
