Piedmont, Charter city in California
Piedmont is a small, primarily residential community with architecturally significant buildings surrounded by the city of Oakland.
Incorporated in 1907, Piedmont was carved out of the larger Oakland at the start of the 20th century.
The city annually hosts the Piedmont Harvest Festival, celebrating local produce and community spirit.
Piedmont is entirely surrounded by the larger city of Oakland, making it central to various amenities.
Despite its encapsulation by Oakland, Piedmont maintains its own government and school system distinct from those of its neighbor.
