Welcome to the Newto News for March of 2024. My name is Zack Cockfield, and my team and I created Newtomedia as a way for visitors or new residents to get information about a city. Each month we bring together resources that will update you on the history, amenities, culture, future opportunities and all other things inside a city that make it unique. We also hope to be a resource for connecting you with people and businesses that can help you live a better life. If you find our efforts useful, please click on the links to get more information!

Originally established as a farming community, the city grew rapidly during the California Gold Rush of the mid-19th century. In the late 1800s, San Jose became a major center for agriculture, particularly for growing fruit and vegetables. It was also a hub for transportation with the completion of the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1864. Throughout the 20th century, San Jose continued to prosper as a center for technology and innovation, attracting companies such as IBM, Hewlett-Packard, and Apple. The city’s population boomed during the tech boom of the 1990s, leading to rapid urbanization and the development of new industries.
