A county fair is held every year at the Alameda County Fairgrounds in Pleasanton, with attractions like horse racing, carnival rides and live bands. Notable locations include Sunol Valley Regional Park, Shafer Creek, Johnson Camp and Muriettas Well Winery among many others. Alameda County is home to a large number of school districts, making it a great place to live and study.
