Pleasanton, Residential city in Alameda County, California, US.
Located in the Amador Valley, Pleasanton extends across both flat lands and rolling hills within the East Bay region of San Francisco Bay Area.
The city received its current name through a clerical error in the 1860s, which misspelled the surname of Civil War General Alfred Pleasonton.
The downtown district contains numerous 19th-century structures, including Gothic Revival and Italianate buildings that reflect early California architectural styles.
The Pleasanton Unified School District manages multiple educational facilities, including Amador Valley High School and Foothill High School, serving local students.
The Alameda County Fairgrounds in Pleasanton features one of the nation's oldest horse racing tracks, established in 1858.
