Drive East on highway 580 anytime around rush hour, and you’ll reach an inevitable conclusion: a whole lot of people are coming and going to the Tri-Valley.
Even in comparison to Silicon Valley’s rapid sprawl to San Francisco, Oakland and adjacent cities, the population and economic growth in the Tri-Valley is happening at breakneck pace.
