We love this view.

As locals, we know that while San Jose doesn’t always get the recognition it deserves, it is a really special place.

The holiday season is always a great time to reflect on the things we’re grateful for, and that’s why we’re asking you: “What about San Jose are you grateful for?”

It could be your favorite independent business, your local park, your childhood neighborhood, or our huge cultural diversity — whatever warms your heart when you think of the great 408. ❤️
