More and more people seem to know the way to San Jose.
Led by the boom in the high-tech sector, the city of San Jose has joined the ranks of the 1 million resident club.
California’s third-largest city topped the demographic marker this month, according to estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau.
San Jose becomes just the 10th American city to hit the million-person milestone – and the third in California. In addition to Los Angeles and San Diego, the other cities on the list include Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Chicago, Philadelphia and Phoenix. New York City remains the nation’s most populous berg with more than 8 million residents.
California is also home to four of the fastest-growing cities in term of raw population numbers. That list includes the state’s three largest cities along with Irvine.
