The City of Redwood City is a dynamic municipal government serving a thriving community of 85,992 residents in the heart of Silicon Valley, a key part of the San Francisco Bay Area. Incorporated in 1867, our mission is to foster a vibrant, well-supported community by offering essential services, a unique retail and entertainment downtown, and a welcoming environment for residents, visitors, and businesses. We proudly host the San Mateo County History Museum and the sole active deep water port in the South San Francisco Bay.

Our organization is driven by a deep commitment to community building, fostering a collaborative and service-oriented culture. We are headquartered in Redwood City, which enjoys an average of 255 sunny days a year and boasts a lively downtown, increasingly recognized as the entertainment hub of the San Francisco Peninsula.
