Campbell traces its roots to 1851, when Benjamin Campbell bought 160 acres in the Santa Clara Valley. In 1878, he sold an acre to the railroad. The town grew into an important rail center for the valley's drying grounds and canneries. Campbell was incorporated as a city in 1952.
Downtown Campbell hosts a farmers' market every Sunday, year-round, rain or shine. The historic Ainsley House, a 1925 Cotswold-style home built for canning pioneer J.C. Ainsley, is now a museum. Los Gatos Creek County Park is in Campbell. The Los Gatos Creek Trail, shared by Campbell, Los Gatos, San Jose, and the county, runs through town. Highway 17 and Highway 85 both serve Campbell. Schools include the Campbell Union School District and the Campbell Union High School District.
Campbell grew as a town of single-family homes around a downtown core. The largest share of its housing was built between 1960 and 1979. Neighborhoods vary from the long-established streets of Campbell Village to the San Tomas area, where homes sit on lots of various sizes with a semi-rural, country feel. Owners of homes on the city's historic inventory may also qualify for Mills Act property tax savings.
