So is Morgan Hill if you live in Marin and Marin if you live in Morgan Hill.

Solano County is heavily connected economically and transit wise with Contra Costa County, San Francisco County, Marin County, and Alameda County.

Most police officers, city workers, low wage service workers, construction workers, etc live in the various cities and suburbs in Solano County and commute into the East Bay, other parts of the North Bay, and San Francisco.

VCs are obviously not funding this through their funds. These are private individual investors.

So, probably no connection with tech, then?

Kind of interesting that at that location it'll get fed from UC Davis grads more than UC Berkeley.

Not really; sure, its a bit closer to Davis, but its close enough to both that which it gets fed by will be determined more by the kinds of jobs in demand compared to the program strengths of the schools, with distance as a trivial factor.

Plenty of people who work in the city of Berkeley, as well as for the city of Berkeley and UC Berkeley live in Solano County. I have a family friend who works for the city of Berkeley and lives in Fairfield for example.

It's part of the Capital Corridor so it's commutable to both the Bay Area and Sacramento, the schools are decent, and the houses are nice and new.

It is Bay Area. Solano County is one of the 9 "Bay Area" counties.

That's like saying Half Moon Bay is in the Bay Area because it's in San Mateo county.

Half Moon Bay is the Bay Area though. Plenty of people live in HMB and commute to San Mateo, Belmont, Palo Alto, etc to work.

I mean, I'd consider Half Moon Bay as part of the Bay Area, sure.

Not sure why this comment is being downvoted. Look at a map - Solano County literally runs along San Pablo Bay in Vallejo.
