Though a number of high-tech companies are headquartered here and many residents commute to the industrial parks of Silicon Valley, Morgan Hill still looks more like Santa Clara Valley’s past. Vineyards, lakes and reservoirs abound—and nearby is vast Henry W. Coe State Park, the second-largest park in California, and home to a protected wilderness area.
