Union City homes, up close
Union Landing is a large shopping center near I-880. Afternoon breezes off the Bay are common.
Most homes were built from the 1960s to the 1980s. Gaps where utility lines enter the house are easy entry points for rodents. The city sits between Hayward and Fremont.
The first winter rains often push ants indoors in big trails. Many homes sit on slab foundations.
Local rules to know
In California, licenses for structural pest control come from the Structural Pest Control Board. Renters should report pests to the landlord in writing, since many local codes make treatment the owner's responsibility. Neighbors often share the same pests, so a building-wide or block-wide approach can work better than treating one unit alone.
Union City incorporated in 1959, joining Alvarado and Decoto. Your water bill comes from the Alameda County Water District, sewage is handled by Union Sanitary District, and the City of Union City Building Division issues building permits. The Hayward Fault runs along the base of the hills.
