Union City Real Estate

Union City’s industrial nature was established when it became the site of the first successful beet sugar mill, and later underlined by the low-cost shipping port of the Alvarado Dock on Alameda Creek. Adding handsome residential developments, industrial parks, and commercial districts, Union City has continued the pattern of expansion. A sprawling shopping center with a 25-screen cinema now complements the many retail plazas.
The community center serves as a vital resource for recreational activities and classes for all ages, while local parks offer athletic fields, playgrounds, game areas, picnic facilities, lighted tennis courts, and an amphitheater for outdoor concerts. Vibrant, progressive, and obviously well managed, the city itself has been honored as an “All American City” finalist. Although local employment opportunities are abundant, Union City commuters enjoy the convenience of bus connections to high-speed rail.
