Smart Growth

Overview

For nearly three decades, San Jose has implemented smart growth policies. These policies foster economic development, revitalize downtown, protect neighborhoods, build housing, preserve open space, link land use and transportation planning, and direct growth to appropriate areas. San Jose has enjoyed job and housing growth near transit corridors, creation of parks and neighborhood services, and a low crime rate for a major city. A strong policy foundation, proactive planning and political support have resulted in a community with a high quality of life.
