Blessed with a waterfront, rich farmlands and a pivotal location, Stockton has overcome past adversities and positioned itself for future growth.
As the city and San Joaquin County mark their 175th anniversaries this year, Stocktonia — the city’s leading nonprofit news site — is celebrating both in an inaugural magazine.
For history buffs, there are stories on Stockton’s rollicking past, including a profile of the San Joaquin County sheriff’s archivist who has amassed a mountain of memorabilia — from saddles to a vintage patrol car.
You can also learn how the 1920s shaped the Stockton we know today.
And for those peering into the future, rediscover a downtown Stockton that has been reinvigorated and readied for an exciting revival.
