Welcome to your best Fremont real estate resource as well as all homes on the market in Alameda County. Fremont is a medium-sized Alameda County city that formed as a result of five area communities merging together, which included Centerville, Niles, Irvington, Mission San Jose, and Warm Springs. Originally named after American explorer John Charles Frémont, the city of Fremont is now where more than 230,000 people live, making it one of East Bay’s largest communities by both area and population. Officially, Fremont is now considered the fourth most populous city in the entire Bay Area region, and the largest suburb in the San Francisco-Oakland metro area. Both Interstate 880 and Interstate 680 travel through the Fremont community, making it a great place to consider for home buyers who commute up to Oakland, or even down around the bay over to Palo Alto or San Jose.

For the mid-century home enthusiast, several communities were built in the 1950s and ‘60s and are full of single-story, ranch-style homes.
