Live & Work in the Bay Area (and Love It!)
Recently, Inc. 5000 and BizJournal’s “100 Fastest Growing Private Companies” list provided us with some great insight into some of the most successful companies in the Bay Area. Using that data, we were able to create a revealing infographic showing the locations of these Fastest Growing San Francisco Companies. To all of these successful companies, we say, “Congratulations!” and send out a sincere thank-you for continuing to make San Francisco and the Bay Area such a vibrant business community.
Considering the business history of our area, it’s no surprise that so many tech companies – just like UnitedLayer® – have made their home in our area. From the earliest days of Silicon Valley, founders of high tech, cutting-edge companies have gravitated to the Bay Area and with good reason. Effective business leaders understand that your company is only as successful as the people who work there, and it takes more than a lucrative job to make employees happy. Contentment comes when all aspects of life are in balance, and that’s exactly what the Bay Area offers. We feel lucky to be able to live and work in the bay area and proud to be a part of that community, so we thought we would pause to examine just a few of the reasons why San Francisco and the surrounding areas are such a great place to live and work.
Why We Love Living & Working in the Bay Area
The Weather
Our cool summers, mild winters and overall temperate climate make it easy to enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities all year long. Whether it’s bicycling, taking long walks in our historic neighborhoods or trying your hand at sailing on the bay, our mild climate makes it easy to enjoy an active lifestyle no matter what the time of year.
The Culture
Whatever you may enjoy – art, theater, live music, literary events, etc. – San Francisco has a well-earned reputation for enjoying a rich cultural scene.
The Food
Most people have heard of our world-class restaurants. But what many people don’t realize is that the quality of the food available here is among the highest you’ll find in any metropolitan area. Fresh seafood is abundant, of course, but so is a variety of organically grown fruits and vegetables – all of which is available in countless farmers’ markets and food co-ops throughout the Bay Area.
The Outdoor Lifestyle
Not only does the Bay Area offer a great climate, it also offers a myriad of outdoor areas in which to enjoy it. Numerous public parks within the cities, as well as beaches and state parks just a short drive away, make it possible to enjoy nature anytime.
The City Itself
By anyone’s standards, San Francisco is arguably one of the most beautiful cities in the entire U.S. And the communities that thrive within the City are close-knit and social, making them ideal places in which to live and raise a family.
San Francisco: the Best City in America
All in all, it’s really no surprise that San Francisco was named the best city in America in 2012 by Bloomberg Businessweek. Just as it’s no surprise that the Bay Area continues to be so attractive to thriving, high tech industries, which is exactly why we’re so proud to be an integral part of this healthy business community. Congratulations again to the movers and shakers on our list of fastest-growing companies. And remember that we’re here to serve you and your company’s Web hosting needs.
