Half Moon Bay was incorporated as a city in 1959, an important milestone in the area's history as it marked a transition from an unincorporated community to a formal, legal municipality.
With incorporation, Half Moon Bay gained greater autonomy and provided its own government, police, fire, and other services. In turn, it allowed the city to tap additional state and federal funds for public works projects, such as roads and public facilities.
The above allowed Half Moon Bay to be a city of greater development and commercial activity, which has contributed to the growth of the local economy over time and transformed it into a vibrant destination for those seeking to explore the beauty of the coast of California.
