New Homes for sale in Californias First Capital
San Jose…. California’s first capital and the heart of Silicon Valley!
The beautiful city of San Jose is located at the southern end of Santa Clara County. San Jose was founded by Spanish settlers on November 29, 1777 as El Pueblo de San José de Guadalupe, the first town in the Spanish colony of Nueva California, which later became Alta California. The city served as an agrarian (farming) community to support Spanish military installations at both San Francisco and Monterey.
When California gained statehood in the year 1850, San Jose served as its first capital. 
After more than 150 years as a center for agriculture, San Jose experienced a marked increase in demand for housing soldiers and other veterans returning from the end of the second World War. San Jose also experienced aggressive expansion during the 1950s and 60s by a continued annex of land. By the 1990s, San Jose’s location within the booming local technology industry earned the city the nickname Capital of Silicon Valley. Today, San Jose is a burgeoning city of nearly one million people who have helped rank it the third largest city in California, and number ten in the United States.
