The City of Piedmont is a primarily residential 1.7 square mile Charter City. Residents are civic minded and embrace traditions, while also looking for new opportunities to innovate and grow together as a community. With approximately 11,000 residents, the City is located in the beautiful Oakland Hills, overlooking the San Francisco Bay. Aptly named “Piedmont,” or “foot of the mountain,” its most distinct features are gardens, bridges, parks and schools that create a special sense of place. In 1907, residents voted to incorporate it as Piedmont, and in 1923 the City became a Charter City.
