I recall back in the 70's and into the early 80's many electronic manufacturing companies were located in Fremont.In fact...
"A boom in high-tech employment in the 1980s to the late 1990s, especially in the Warm Springs District, caused rapid development in the city and linked the city with the Silicon Valley. The Apple factory where the first Mac computer was manufactured was located in Fremont(production ceased in 1993). Other semiconductor and telecommunications firms soon opened in the city, including Cirrus Logic, Asyst Technologies, Mattson Technology, Lam Research, Premisys Communications, and Nextlink California. Approximately 750 high tech companies had offices, headquarters or production facilities in Fremont by 1999. These firms included fifteen of the top one hundred fastest-growing public companies in the San Francisco Bay Area and eighteen of the top fifty companies in the East Bay."
It must be true: Link below

Interesting. Thanks.
It is the closest East Bay city to Silicon Valley, and is thus sometimes associated with it.
A 10 minute commute by car, or better yet by bike, may no longer be feasible for most who work in silicon valley. For those of us who worked at the Stanford Research Institute (now SRI), Atherton, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Portola Valley, or Woodside were the choice places to live, but all are quite pricy now.
