 > Instruction has also been given that the Pacific Press should be moved from Oakland. [The move to Mountain View, California, **thirty-eight miles (61km) south of San Francisco**, was made in 1904 (see SDAEn 1059.)] As the years have passed by, the city has grown and it is now necessary to establish the printing plant in some more rural place, where land can be secured for the homes of the employees. Those who are connected with our offices of publication should not be obliged to live in the crowded cities. They should have opportunity to obtain homes where they will be able to live without requiring high wages.—Fundamentals of Christian Education, 492.((White, E. G. (1983). The Publishing Ministry. Hagerstown, MD: Review and Herald Publishing Association, p. 187, para. 2-4))
-The Pacific Union Recorder for June 23, 1904 reported that the town of Mountain View had a population of only about **800 people**. The piece of land purchased was about **5 acres** (2 hectares). Although in a rural location, there was easy access to the railroad.((https://documents.adventistarchives.org/Periodicals/PUR/PUR19040623-V03-25.pdf))
