Fremont brings together five historic townships: Centerville, Niles, Irvington, Warm Springs, and Mission San Jose. They joined in 1956 to form the city. Each survives today as a named historic district. Mission San Jose was founded as the 14th California mission. Niles was the earliest home of California's motion picture industry, where Charlie Chaplin filmed The Tramp.
Mission Peak Regional Preserve rises to the east, with trails that look out over the southern arm of San Francisco Bay. Central Park's lake and loop trail sit at the heart of the city. Coyote Hills Regional Park protects marshland and grassy hills along the bay shore. Two BART stations, Fremont and Warm Springs/South Fremont, connect residents across the Bay Area. Interstates 680 and 880 also run through the city. Fremont Unified School District serves students in the City of Fremont.
Fremont's neighborhoods are made up mostly of single-family homes, many of them single-story. The largest share was built between 1960 and 1979. Attached homes and apartments add more options.
