Bob Nguyen for Millbrae City Council, District 4. Responsible, sustainable growth.

Responsible, sustainable growth for our city.

Why I'm Running

My name is Bob Nguyen, and I am the current Councilmember representing Millbrae District 4, where I have served since 2024. My wife, who is Chinese American, and I have called Millbrae home for more than 10 years, raising our family and building deep roots in this community. My commitment to public service began in 2022, when I stepped forward as a write-in candidate to ensure District 4 voters had a real choice, earning 26.69% of the vote — an extraordinary showing that reflected meaningful support from neighbors across the district.

I'm running to keep Millbrae safe, livable, and financially strong while planning responsibly for the future. My approach is balanced, practical, and data-driven — focused on protecting our neighborhoods, strengthening infrastructure, and ensuring City Hall listens to the people it serves.

Steady, manageable growth.

Millbrae is growing — modestly but steadily. Here is our population at each U.S. Census. Planning honestly for that growth, while protecting what makes Millbrae feel like home, is what responsible leadership looks like.
