About Albany
Albany is a city located in Alameda County, California. As of
the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 16,444. and
more than 350,000 living within a 15-mile radius, Albany today
combines a small-town ambience with its central location in a
major metropolitan area. Albany prides itself on being a safe,
community-oriented city, with strong services and programs for
youth, families and the elderly. It is a city made up primarily
of single-family homes and small businesses, its small town character
exemplified by its "Main Street," Solano Avenue. Albany's
public schools have an outstanding reputation with student test
scores at the elementary, middle and high school levels among
the highest in the state. The city lies in the northwestern corner
of Alameda County, bordered by the cities of El Cerrito and Richmond
on the north and the city of Berkeley on the east and south sides.
The terrain is mostly flat, except for Albany Hill, which rises
to 338 feet above sea level. The Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge
is just a few miles south of Albany, off Interstate 80, which
runs along the western edge of the city. AC Transit bus lines
and a BART station in neighboring El Cerrito provide easy accessible
transportation service to San Francisco, Richmond, Berkeley, Oakland
and beyond. Albany is often referred to as "kid town,"
with over half of the population 35 years of age or younger. About
75% of Albany residents live in family households and, of those
families, 75 are headed by married couples.
