Fremont is an attractive, modern suburban community with a historic past and a promising future. Its oldest neighborhoods are part of the original districts that joined together to eventually form the city. Well-built and well-maintained homes in these areas have withstood the test of time and offer distinctive character and old-world charm.
Residents enjoy a host of desirable living choices, from rambling ranches to modern architecture. Fremont has a wide selection and style of housing, including newly-built single-family and condominium developments, moderately priced rental units, and dwellings for senior citizens and the disabled. There are many upscale executive homes as well, some offering panoramic views of the Bay and Mission Peak.
