Danville is a medium-sized town located in the state of California. With a population of 42,127 people and five constituent neighborhoods, Danville is the 185th largest community in California.

Overall, Danville is a town of managers, sales and office workers, and professionals. There are especially a lot of people living in Danville who work in management occupations (24.02%), sales jobs (17.64%), and office and administrative support jobs (10.86%).

Also of interest is that Danville has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

In addition, Danville is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates." Urban sophisticates are people who are both educated and wealthy, and thus tend to be older, richer, and more established than young professionals. "Urban sophisticates" is not just about being educated and well-off financially: it is a point of view and state of mind, one that you might call 'urbaneness.' But such people can and do regularly live in small towns, suburbs and rural areas, as well as in big cities. They read, support the arts and high-end shops, and love travel.

Danville is a good choice for families with children because of several factors. Many other families with children live here, making it a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families. The town's good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic success. Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community. Finally, Danville's overall crime rate is lower than average for the country.

One downside of living in Danville, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 30.91 minutes every day commuting to work.

The town of Danville is a decent size, but despite this, it doesn't have a viable public transit system that people can use to get to work.
