Milpitas California

Milpitas is a suburb of the high tech mecha of the Silicon Valley with some of the major electronic headquarters within city limits. At the base of the mountains, with easy access to several major freeways make Milpitas an ideally located family oriented community.

On January 26, 1954, Milpitas was incorporated as a city. Milpitas has been home to one of the original Ford Mustang plants and has been one of the main California junctions of the Union Pacific Railroad 'back in the day'.

One of the bay area's most fun Art and Wine festivals takes place in Milpitas during the month of August. If you have not visited Milpitas before, be sure to try to visit the festival in the summer. It is a wonderful and sunny event.
