The Community
Stockton had its origin in the California Gold Rush period when it served as a staging area for miners coming up river from San Francisco heading for the Mother Lode country. Later, the City became the focal point for the agribusiness of the San Joaquin Valley. The rich farmland supports agriculture as varied as tomatoes, asparagus, and, more recently, thousands of acres of wine grapes.

More recent years have brought a variety of business to the area. Over the last year, 3.14 million square feet of space was occupied by 17 new businesses. The San Joaquin/Sacramento River Delta offers boating, fishing, water skiing, sailing, and restaurants catering to water sports enthusiasts. Opportunities to enjoy music, theater, dance, literary events, and other cultural and entertainment activities abound.

In 1999, Stockton was designated an All-America City by the National Civic League. Each year the National Civic League receives applications from approximately 100 cities across the country for this prestigious recognition. Stockton received the All-America City Award for work the community has done to create new jobs, reduce crime, improve the Delta's environment, and revitalize the downtown area. These accomplishments were a result of cooperative efforts by Stockton citizens, community leaders, and government working together to improve the quality of life in our city. It is with great pride that the City of Stockton carries the title of All-America City.
