Welcome to Fairfax

The Town of Fairfax is an environmentally conscious community situated in the heart of central Marin County. Incorporated in 1921, Fairfax has a population of approximately 7500. Historic development patterns in Fairfax created a town with a distinct center, giving it a village-like feel, and providing a good public transit hub within walking and bicycling distance of most of the town’s inhabitants.
 
The current town center creates a lively mixture of businesses and residences. The Art Deco movie theater is the centerpiece of a vibrant nightlife with top-notch restaurants and well-known clubs with venues for jazz and other popular music. The Town’s village-like character, reflected in the small businesses, quaint neighborhoods, and busy sidewalks, contributes to the sense of uniqueness in Fairfax.
