Numerous commercial centers in the city have had substantial renovations and expansions, while newer additions include Hacienda Crossings, The Shops at Waterford, The Shops at Tralee Village, and others. The Federal Correctional Institution, Dublin, and the Parks Reserve Forces Training Area (PRFTA), often known as Camp Parks, are among the notable institutions that call this region home.

The County of Alameda, Dublin Unified School District, Ross Stores, Kaiser Permanente, and other notable organizations are among the city's top employers, according to the 2020 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.

What are the educational opportunities in Dublin?

The Dublin Unified School District, which runs a K-8 school, middle schools, and Dublin High School, is in charge of the local public education system. The high school is now undertaking a significant renovation project supported by Bond Measure "C" with the goal of improving facilities and expanding enrollment. Dublin High School has achieved distinction by being listed among America's top public high schools in Newsweek's 2010 list.
