Silicon Valley is a strip along 101 starting at Palo Alto and
extending south to Santa Clara. In recent years the strip has
extended down to the 101/880 intersection. San Jose missed out
totally in the creation of Silicon Valley despite being the
biggest local city. Los Gatos and Los Altos is where many
Silicon Valley millionaires live but has never had significant
numbers of actual companies located in them. There is another
strip of industrial parks along 280 from Palo Alto to
Cupertino but that is a sparse strip with no where near the
density of companies along 101.
