Blank columns indicate information has not been found.
Most data taken from city web sites, and may not come from consistent original
sources.
Temperature numbers for Livermore are from a link from the National Weather
Service averaged from 1930 to 2001. The Dublin city web site appears to use
the Livermore numbers.

*Tri Valley includes Livermore, Pleasanton, Sunol, Dublin, and
San Ramon for the numbers above.
Total and Tri-Valley total for percentages and median age are calculated using
weighted average.
Some Observations:
The Tri-Valley area grew at about double the
National and California averages from 1990 to 2000. 28.5% over 10 years is
just over a 2.5% per year growth. The National average was about 1.25% per
year.
The Tri-Valley has fewer people in the 18-24 age group and far fewer people over age 65 than than the National and California averages.
The Tri-Valley has more people in the Under 18 age group (especially Livermore & Pleasanton) and much higher in the 25-44 age group than the National average.
The Tri-Valley has far higher than the National or California averages for family household percentage.
These numbers suggest that the Tri-Valley is home to a lot of young families, which is what would be expected.
|
The following is a list of Pacific Bell exchanges (prefixes) used in each city. Livermore, Pleasanton, and Sunol have their own switches. Dublin and San Ramon are combined, and share exchanges. |
|
This list does not include cell phone exchanges, or non-Pacific Bell exchanges (ATT Broadband), although other carriers will use some of these exchanges, when phone service has been switched between carriers and the same number is maintained. |
|
The exchange list was obtained from Pacific Bell on 11/5/02. New exchanges are added periodically. |
|
In general the exchanges are contained within a local switch, and are not shared between them. Moving from Livermore to Pleasanton, for instance, requires a phone number change. |
|
Note that some business numbers in San Ramon have been noticed with Danville exchanges. |
|
Each exchange represents 10,000 possible phone numbers (although some are likely reserved). |
|
Some large organizations, such as the Lab, have their own exchange(s). These ARE included in this list. |
| Bold numbers represent exchanges that are known to be very heavily used residentially, or been in use for a long period of time (this list is likely incomplete). Suggestions welcome for inclusion. |
