The community welcomes and supports families, from young newlyweds to retired couples, from single parent households to multi-generational family units.
Concord has been recognized as the best place in California to raise a family, awarded Best Music Scene by the Livability website, and has been designated a Tree City USA for 33 consecutive years. The local lifestyle reflects a careful blending of the City's early California heritage with modern development.
