San Pablo straddles San Pablo Creek in California’s East Bay, and its position between San Pablo Bay and Contra Costa County’s inland hills has shaped a compact, diverse urban community. The creek runs west through the city toward the bay, while the wider setting connects San Pablo closely with Richmond, El Cerrito and the rest of the Bay Area. Incorporated in 1948, the city grew during the East Bay’s postwar expansion. The Lytton Band of Pomo Indians operates the San Pablo Lytton Casino here, a prominent local institution.
