Centerville

Centerville was once the heart of Washington Township and the central shipping point for fruit, grain, and vegetables ready for distribution to San Francisco, Centerville is one of five towns that incorporated in 1956 to form Fremont.

Today, Centerville is home to a thriving multicultural business district and community centered around the recently renovated Centerville Depot.  The District's international flavor, active businesses and diverse residential community add to its pedestrian-friendly character. 

Special events include the Saturday Farmer's Market, Annual Depot Day Celebration, and Holiday Tree Lighting, all of which help make Centerville a regional destination.

As the name suggests, Centerville is centrally located in Fremont around the bustling intersection of Fremont Boulevard and Thornton Avenue, where high traffic counts exceed 54,000 vehicles per day.  With easy access from Interstate 880 and Highway 84, Centerville is a convenient destination for a welcoming mix of retail, international foods and restaurants. The District is also a well-connected transportation hub.  The Amtrak Capitol Corridor train provides Fremont with links to both Oakland and Sacramento to the north and San Jose to the south, and the Altamont Commuter Express (ACE) train travels from San Joaquin County to Santa Clara.

Centerville has one of the most diverse ethnic populations in Fremont.  It has become the go-to place for many working professionals looking to buy their first home. Centerville is rich with multi-cultural pride and has always been a place of charm and culture. Its churches, schools and organizations have been recognized for their social contributions. Its people are currently working to preserve some of its historic charm and beauty in order to recapture its glory days with strong plans for redeveloping the Historic downtown area. The restored historic Centerville depot is just the beginning. Citizens soon hope to also restore other buildings and bring a community theater to the historic movie house on Fremont Boulevard. Recent efforts by the Redevelopment Agency to revitalize the District include a number of major improvement projects, such as streetscape and facade improvements, restoration of the Centerville Depot, and completion of the Centerville Bill Ball Plaza.  All are key projects intended to help retain the scale, character, and heritage of Centerville.

Centerville is also host to a Farmers' Market that is open all year round on Saturdays from 9:00am until 1:00pm. The market is located in the heart of Fremont next to the historic Centerville Train Depot.

Centerville is a clean, attractive community; the residents take pride in the appearance and security of their neighborhoods. It is a place where people know each other and gather frequently to enjoy the company of family and friends. Many holiday festivities are celebrated in Centerville neighborhoods. Fourth of July will find bikes, strollers and even lawn mowers decked out and on parade. They are all on their way to Alta Park where everyone goes for free swimming and BBQ cookout. A 110-foot tall Redwood in Meyer Park is lit to welcome the Christmas holiday season with caroling and a visit from Santa, too. Easter Bunny visit Halloween carnivals, and an annual flea market are just parts of the festive spirit shown throughout the year.
