Fremont on Wikipedia

Wikipedia has become a phenomenon - it's a place where anyone can add any information about any topic they want. So...what does it have to say about Fremont?

The city is named after John Charles Frémont, "the Great Pathfinder."

Fremont had the largest Afghan population in the United States in 2001 and still has a large Afghan population today.

On the other end of Hip Hop's political spectrum, Emcee Lynx grew up in the Irvington district of Fremont.
