Piedmont incorporated in 1907 after two close votes to stay separate from Oakland, and most of its growth came in the 1920s and 1930s. ## What Piedmont does to a range hood. Piedmont's median home dates from 1938, and close to two thirds of its housing predates 1940, per ACS figures for 2020–2024. About 88.5 percent of Piedmont households heat mainly with gas from the utility main, with electricity a distant second at about 10 percent. Piedmont lies near the Hayward seismic zone that runs through the East Bay, and it keeps its own fire and police departments rather than sharing Oakland's.
