San Jose is the largest city in Northern California, about 970,000 people, and the center of Santa Clara County's 1.9 million. ZIP codes 950 and 951 cover the city and the valley. The housing is mostly single-family ranch and tract homes from the 1950s through the 1980s, with the highest home values of any large American city, and carrier routes of 400 to 700 homes across Willow Glen, Cambrian, Almaden, Evergreen and Berryessa. It is a strong market for saturation mail and farming, with an unusually affluent audience.
Silicon Valley businesses mail for the same reasons businesses everywhere do, with a local twist: real estate agents farm neighborhoods where a single sale is worth seven figures, home services companies serve a housing stock that is uniformly due for roofs, windows and solar, and the valley's dense multilingual communities respond to mail in Vietnamese, Spanish, Chinese and Hindi as well as English.
Who mails in San Jose?
Real estate agents and teams farming Willow Glen, Almaden, Los Gatos, Cupertino and Saratoga; solar, roofing, remodeling, landscaping and pool companies mailing by home value; restaurants in every cuisine the valley eats, covering the routes near them; dental, orthodontic, dermatology and fertility practices; private schools and tutoring centers, a large category here; auto dealers on Stevens Creek; and the financial advisors and wealth managers who mail the valley's households by net worth.
Language and neighborhood targeting
San Jose has the largest Vietnamese community of any US city, concentrated in East San Jose and along Story Road; large Mexican-American communities in the east and south; and Chinese and Indian communities in Cupertino, Sunnyvale, Milpitas and Evergreen. Mailings are routinely produced in two or three language versions, sent to the carrier routes where each language is spoken or to the customers on your list who read it.
The valley and the Peninsula
Mailings often extend to San Mateo County and the Peninsula, which go out with San Jose as one drop. The print partner is matched to the job by where it delivers and when it can mail; we have exclusive partnerships with the three largest print and mail companies in the US.

Answers
Direct mail in San Jose: questions people ask
How much does direct mail cost in San Jose?
San Jose has no posted price; each job is quoted for its part of the valley and what it involves. The count follows the routes, 400 to 700 homes apiece across Willow Glen, Cambrian, Almaden, Evergreen and Berryessa. Carrying the drop up the Peninsula into San Mateo County adds to it, and a Vietnamese or Chinese version doesn't.
Can you mail in Vietnamese, Spanish or Chinese in San Jose?
Yes. We print language versions of the same piece in one run and mail each to the routes or households you choose, at the same per-piece price as the English version.
Do you mail the Peninsula and the South Bay together?
Yes. San Jose campaigns often run from Morgan Hill in Santa Clara County on up the Peninsula into San Mateo County, all as one drop. The language mix shifts along the way, from Vietnamese in East San Jose to Chinese and Indian households in Cupertino, Sunnyvale and Milpitas.
Which San Jose homes should a solar or roofing company mail?
Most of them. San Jose is largely single-family ranch and tract homes built from the 1950s through the 1980s, and that stock is uniformly due for roofs, windows and solar. With the highest home values of any large American city, a tract of same-age houses is worth covering route by route, and a company's own past customers are worth mailing again.
