The Effective Buying Income (EBI) of Oakland and East Bay residents is among the highest in the country.  This demand is largely served by the city's distinctive neighborhood commercial districts such as Piedmont Avenue, College Avenue, and Montclair.  Downtown's Jack London Square and Chinatown also offer excellent shopping and dining opportunities.

Prospective retailers are encouraged to contact the City's Business Development Office at (510) 238-2206.
