Milpitas, California

Some people may have ditched California for Nevada, but there are still a lot of new residents who flock to the Golden State, and many of them have gravitated towards Milpitas in recent years. This small city has soared in the past 10 years. The growth of Milpitas can be attributed to the massive presence of the tech sector in Northern California since the city is in the San Francisco Bay Area. There are semiconductor manufacturers and several other tech giants, such as SanDisk, in this booming town and, nearly 80,000 people call it home. In 2020, WalletHub reported that it the second-fastest-growing small American city. However, if you’re considering moving there, it’s best you prepare some serious cash. Milpitas’ median household income is over $125,000.
