California real estate borders the Pacific Ocean, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, and the Mexican state of Baja California. California real estate has extremely varied geography. In the center of the state lies the Central Valley, bounded by the coastal mountain ranges in the west, the granite Sierra Nevada mountain range to the east, the volcanic Cascade Range in the north, and the Tehachapi Mountains in the south. Mountain-fed rivers, dams, and canals provide water to irrigate the Central Valley. It is one of America's major agricultural areas. With dredging, several of these rivers have become sufficiently large and deep that a handful of inland cities, notably Stockton, are actually seaports.
Most major cities cling to the seacoast along the Pacific, notably: Los Angeles, the second largest city in the United States and also known as the "City of Angels"; Long Beach, a major port city near Los Angeles; San Francisco,, known world-wide for the Golden Gate Bridge; San Jose; named the safest city in the U.S. in 2004; and San Diego, which is home to the largest naval fleet in the world. Sacramento, the capital of California, lies in the Central Valley.*
