Known throughout the region for its stately and beautiful single-family homes (many of historical significance), Claremont also offers condominiums, townhouses, and apartment living to meet varied needs and lifestyles. In balance with residential development, there are thriving commercial and major industrial centers in Claremont as well as the historical downtown "Village." The City has a well-educated, professional, and skilled labor force; quality and diversified residential areas; and excellent educational and recreational facilities.

Claremont has over 25,000 City trees and has been a winner of the National Arbor Day Association's TREE CITY USA award for 38 years.
