Airport:Weston Ranch is served by Stockton Metropolitan Airport, located on county land just south of
Stockton's city limits. The airport has been designated a Foreign Trade Zone and is mainly used by manufacturing and agricultural companies for shipping purposes. Since airline deregulation, passenger service has come and gone several times. Most recently, domestic service resumed in June 2006 with service to
Las Vegas by Allegiant Air, and the days of service/number of flights were expanded a few months later due to demand. Also in 2006, Aeromexico had planned to provide service to and from Guadalajara, Mexico, but the airport's plan to build a customs station at the airport was initially rejected by the customs service. However, the possibility of building this station is currently a continuing matter of negotiation between the airport and the customs service, and Aeromexico has indicated a continuing interest in eventually providing service. Ground transportation is available from Hertz, Enterprise, Yellow Cab and Aurora Limousine. Air service to
Phoenix began in September 2007.

evaluating walkability is challenging because it requires the consideration
of many subjective factors. Factors influencing walkability include the
presence or absence and quality of sidewalks or other pedestrian

Real Estate
As a result of the population increase, Stockton found itself squarely at the center of the United States' speculative housing bubble in the 2000s. Real estate in Stockton more than tripled in value between 1998 and 2005, but when the bubble burst in 2007, the ensuing financial crisis arguably hit Stockton harder than any other city in America. Stockton housing prices fell 39% in the 2008 fiscal year, and the city had the country's highest
foreclosure rate (9.5%) as well.
Stockton was disproportionately affected by the collapse of the
sub-prime lending market in 2007, and led the United States in foreclosures for that year, with one out of every thirty homes posted for foreclosure..
The Stockton Weston Ranch neighborhood, a 15-year-old subdivision of modest tract homes, had the worst foreclosure rate in the area according to ACORN, a national advocacy group for low and moderate-income families.
On September 19, 2007, CNN reported that Stockton led the nation in the 100 largest metro areas that are forecast to witness a decline in the median existing single-family house price.
Keep in mind that with all the foreclosures and the low prices, sales are
running at an all time high with out-of-town investors grabbing up the bargain
real estate properties.
Read the book, ' Chain of Blame: How Wall Street Caused the Mortgage and Credit Crisis' - An account of this inconceivable disaster, with a particular focus on the people involved in such a basically flawed debacle. In it, Mathew Padilla and Paul Muolo authors of the book reveal the facts behind how this catastrophe happened, including what particular institutions and individuals doing during this crucial time, and the people ultimately responsible.
