The expansion of Fairfield's population base is balanced with commercial, office and industrial development. The City has permitted almost 7 million square feet of retail, office and industrial development since 1995. The location of Travis Air Force Base, the proximity and access to the rest of the Bay Area, and the availability of land, has combined to facilitate this development. A wide variety of manufacturing, light industry, back office, distribution and research and development firms are located in Fairfield.
