A flourishing East Bay city in a central location
Dublin is a rapidly developing suburban city in the East Bay’s Amador Valley. It’s one of the fastest-growing cities in California; in 2023, the population hovered around 70,000, more than double what it was in 2000. The name – Dublin, the same name as the capital city of Ireland – dates back to the late 19th century when the area had a large Irish population. One of Dublin’s biggest draws is its position at the intersection of Interstates 580 and 680: “The central location is everything to the people who live here,” says Kim Deol, a Realtor with Intero Real Estate Services who has served the area for nearly 20 years. “You’ve got access to the interstates to get to Fremont or Oakland, but you’ve also got everything you need within the area, like big parks and plenty of shopping.” As Dublin grows and makes a name for itself, local government officials have made conscious efforts to establish and define the city. “Improving the city’s identity has been a primary focus for the city, especially since there is currently no formal downtown; efforts to establish one are ongoing,” says Danny Kang, a local Realtor with Danny Kang Real Estate. “Over the past 20 years, I’ve observed that Dublin's main attractions have several key characteristics: affordability, safety, quality schools, a family-oriented atmosphere and a notable increase in new developments.” Kang also notes that the city’s location near the South Bay and San Francisco offers opportunities for new development projects like hotels or offices for tech companies.

New construction pushes into eastern Dublin
Newly-built homes dominate Dublin’s housing market. Since the start of the 21st century, the city has welcomed dozens of subdivisions filled with contemporary single-family homes and townhouse complexes surrounding community amenities like outdoor parks and recreational facilities. According to Kang, the city’s housing options can be divvied up geographically: older single-family homes with larger lot sizes are primarily found in the western part of the city, where neighborhoods include San Ramon Village, West Dublin and Echo Park.
Newer construction, including condos and townhomes, dot eastern communities like Boulevard, Dublin Ranch and Positano. Single-family homes typically range from $1.5 million to $2.5 million, while most condos and townhouses cost between $600,000 and $1.2 million. The median home price of all residential properties in Dublin is about $1.3 million, a steep increase from $850,000 in 2019.

High marks for Dublin Unified School District
Students in kindergarten through 12th grade are served by the Dublin Unified School District, which receives an overall A-plus rating from Niche and is a draw for families. “The district is highly rated and growing quickly,” Deol says. In 2025, Niche ranked Dublin Unified as one of the top 40 best school districts in California. It includes seven elementary schools, two middle schools, two high schools and the brand-new Cottonwood Creek TK-8 School, which serves prekindergarten through eighth grade. One of the high schools, Emerald High School, also opened recently and began offering on-campus classes in fall 2024.

Year-round activities at Dublin’s parks and recreational facilities
Thanks to a Mediterranean-like climate with mild winters and otherwise balmy weather, Dublin residents can enjoy outdoor recreation all year round. Dublin’s Parks and Recreation Department oversees 24 city parks, the Martin Canyon Creek Trail and the Dougherty Hills Open Space area, which spans over 100 acres of land. The city’s largest park, Emerald Glen Park, is home to The Wave, a water park and aquatic facility with a waterslide tower, a kid-friendly Splash Zone area and two swimming pools, one indoor and one outdoor. Sitting on the city’s southern end, Dublin Sports Grounds is a hub for recreational league games, with multiple baseball, softball and soccer fields. Only a few miles outside the city in nearby Pleasanton is the Shadow Cliffs Regional Recreation Area, a popular outdoor space with an 80-acre lake where people can swim, fish and go boating.

Long-term plans to develop and define downtown Dublin
Dublin is somewhat limited when it comes to shopping and dining options: “Many residents prefer to visit nearby areas such as downtown Pleasanton, Bishop Ranch in San Ramon, the San Francisco Premium Outlet Mall or downtown Livermore, where they can find more extensive shopping plazas and a variety of restaurants,” Kang says. That said, Dublin is still home to Dublin Retail Center and Dublin Place, two side-by-side shopping centers with a handful of department stores, national retailers and supermarkets. Immediately south of Dublin, just across Interstate 580, is Pleasanton’s Stoneridge Shopping Center, a two-level indoor mall with more than 165 stores and eateries.
In 2019, the city council established the Downtown Dublin Preferred Vision. This long-term strategy oversees the development and actualization of a defined downtown area, bordered by Amador Valley Boulevard to the north, Dublin Boulevard to the south, Amador Plaza Road to the east and Regional Street to the west. Priorities for developing the downtown area include implementing pedestrian-friendly infrastructure and creating a town square.

St. Patrick’s Day Celebration pays tribute to Dublin’s roots
In keeping with its Emerald Isle foundations, Dublin hosts an annual weekend-long St. Patrick’s Day Celebration full of traditional Irish music, dance performances and authentic cuisine. Festivalgoers can also enjoy carnival rides, browse hundreds of artisan vendors and line up for the St. Patrick’s Day Parade to watch dozens of floats and entertainment acts. Between April and September, the seasonal Dublin Farmers’ Market is hosted every Thursday at Emerald Glen Park. Local history is preserved at Dublin Heritage Park and Museums, a ten-acre outdoor space full of picnic areas encircled by historic buildings, museums and landmarks. Five miles south of Dublin is the Alameda County Fairgrounds; in addition to being the home of the annual county fair in the summertime, the fairgrounds and its numerous venues host hundreds of events throughout the year, including concerts, trade shows and conventions.

Commuting across the Bay Area
At the intersection of Interstate 580 and Interstate 680, Dublin offers commuters convenient access to two of the region’s principal highways. I-580 is an east-west thoroughfare traveling into cities like Oakland, a 23-mile drive away, and I-680 runs north-south, connecting to places like Fremont and San Jose. Dublin’s public transit options include a park-and-ride BART Station, which offers bus routes that stretch across the Bay Area. The Dublin and the Tri-Valley area are served by Wheels, a local bus service operated by the Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority (LAVTA). The Oakland International Airport is a 17-mile drive west and offers dozens of direct domestic and intercontinental flights.
Crime and safety in Dublin
From 2021 to 2022, the Dublin Police Department reported a 36% decrease in violent crimes but a 14% increase in property crime. Between both years, 87% of reported crimes were property-related offenses, particularly larceny. According to the FBI Crime Data Explorer, Dublin has lower violent and property-related crime rates than state averages. Dublin Police oversee crime prevention efforts, such as neighborhood watch organizations and youth programs about road safety, illicit drug use and law enforcement.
