San Francisco is California's fourth most populous city. San Francisco was settled by the Spanish in the late 1700s but did not expand into a full city until the Gold Rush of 1848. Encompassing a peninsula, the city sits on a mostly north-south trajectory, with Oakland to the east, San Jose to the south-east, and Marin County to the north.
