San Jose is the third-largest city in California and the tenth-largest in the United States. According to the U.S. census bureau the population was 964,695.
On April 3, 1979, the San Jose City Council adopted San José, with the diacritical mark on the "e", as the spelling of the city name on the city seal, official stationery, office titles and department names.
San Jose has 300+ days of sunshine annually. Although San Jose lies inland and does not front the Pacific Ocean like San Francisco, it is surrounded on three sides by mountains.
The large concentration of high-technology engineering, computer, and microprocessor companies around San Jose has led the area to be known as Silicon Valley. As the largest city in the valley, San Jose has billed itself "the capital of Silicon Valley."
The HP Pavilion at San Jose is one of the most active venues for events in the world.
