Help serve an engaged, vibrant community
The City of Berkeley is distinguished by its diversity, community engagement, and activism. Home to the University of California’s flagship campus, Berkeley’s population is highly educated, diverse, and engaged. The City lies on the east shore of the San Francisco Bay and rolling hills shelter its eastern border. Berkeley spans 10 square miles with 119,000 residents.
Our climate is mild year-round, with cool summers. The City showcases an outdoor focus through its acres of open space, parks, and bike lanes. Public transportation is well developed and reliable, with three Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) stations in Berkeley. These factors translate to an outstanding quality of life for Berkeley residents, with a bounty of outdoor, recreational, and cultural activities.
The City of Berkeley lies in Alameda County and operates under a Council-Manager form of government. The City Council comprises eight districts, each of which elect one representative. City Councilmembers and the mayor at-large each serve a four-year term.
The City Council appoints a City Manager, who serves as the Chief Executive of the City. Berkeley provides a comprehensive range of municipal services to its population, many of which are not typically offered by cities.
The City of Berkeley’s Health, Housing, and Community Services Department provides public, mental, and environmental health services. The City also offers its own residential and commercial solid waste collection, recycling, and disposal services. The City’s Parks, Recreation, and Waterfront Department offers a variety of summer camps and operates a 1,000-berth marina.
