Community Information

Emeryville’s community is both intimate and diverse. Though the city began over a century ago as a modest tract of land north of Oakland, it has since blossomed into a unique city in its own right, offering first-class education, health, cultural, and government services.

Emeryville is served by the Emery Unified School District, which enrolls approximately 700 students in its elementary, middle, and high schools. A city-sponsored child development center serves pre-schoolers, while the trilingual Pacific Rim International School serves Japanese, Chinese, and English-speaking elementary students.

Emeryville also offers myriad services for its senior citizen community. A one million dollar renovation of the Art Deco Emeryville Senior Center has made it the regional focal point for more than 1,000 senior citizens and their families.
