The company is located in Menlo Park, according to their site:
<quote>Google Inc. was founded in 1998 by Sergey Brin and Larry Page to make
it easier to find high-quality information on the web. The company is based
on three years of research in web search and data mining done by the
founders in the Stanford University Computer Science Department.
...and from another page...
Google is fueled with many Stanford folks, but others -- even Berkeley
grads -- are welcome. Google is a dynamic and fun place to work. We are
located in the heart of Silicon Valley, in Menlo Park.</quote>

Good question, I just fired off an email to them asking about it. Will let
you know what I learn.
