Stockton Overview

Positioned on the San Joaquin River, Stockton is one of California’s largest cities. Its seaport provides a passage to California’s central valley, and the city itself is a haven for people seeking out a unique experience that embodies the essence of the region. Cultures come together along the California Delta, where Stockton brings different communities together in a diverse, energetic place filled with both modern day convenience and rich history. In Stockton, you will find yourself experiencing the unexpected and loving every minute of it.

What is the history of Stockton?

The Stockton area was once inhabited by a tribe of Yokut Indians, who lived on low mounds to avoid the flooding that took place regularly in the region. In the mid-1800s, the area played host to an influx of Americans and Europeans after the discovery of gold in northern California. It was the Gold Rush that prompted Captain Charles Weber to secure a land grant, seeking to capitalize on the supply needs of gold-seekers instead of trying to mine himself. Once the land east of the San Joaquin River was secured in 1849, Weber founded Stockton, which became an important river port during the California Gold Rush. It also served as a central hub, with numerous roads leading to various gold settlements within the valley.

How is the weather in Stockton?

Stockton’s climate is Mediterranean, with typically mild winters and hot, dry summers. Most of the rainfall occurs between October and April, and the spring tends to be mostly cool, up until May when the average temperature approaches 70°F.
