Brentwood, Suburban city in Contra Costa County, California, US
Brentwood spans across 14.81 square miles of alluvial plain, featuring rolling hills, fruit orchards, vineyards, and residential neighborhoods near San Francisco Bay Area.
The area belonged to Rancho Los Meganos, granted to Don Jose Noriega in 1835, before John Marsh acquired the property in 1837 and named it after Essex, England.
The Julpuns, part of Bay Miwok tribes, established their settlements near creek areas and maintained strong connections to Mount Diablo before European arrival.
The city offers multiple educational institutions through Brentwood Union School District, with transportation services provided by Tri Delta Transit to neighboring regions.
Local agricultural production focuses on cherries, corn, and peaches, while modern development includes parks, recreational facilities, and community gathering spaces.
