Suburbs of Sacramento

Suburbs of Sacramento

Big city living isn’t for everyone–but at the same time, urban areas certainly have their perks. There’s the culture, the food, the arts, the food, the energy, and you know, the food. But there are drawbacks. There’s traffic, expensive parking, expensive housing–pretty much, expensive everything, depending on which big city you’re looking at.

But that’s where the suburbs come in–they have all of the benefits of being near big cities, without actually having to be big cities.

Within Sacramento

Midtown— If you want a fast-paced youthful environment, consider the Downtown or Midtown areas. Midtown has an eclectic mix of hippies and hipsters as well as young working professionals. The housing market is equally varied. You might find a single-family house next to an apartment building next to a tattoo parlor. Looking for a highly walkable area? Midtown is your best bet.

East Sacramento — East Sac is an upscale section of town that has high price per sq ft in the city. This area is home to doctors, attorneys, lobbyists, and business owners. The area has McKinley Park, a 32-acre green space full of recreational places to gather.

South Land Park — This neighborhood is composed primarily of 1950’s ranch style homes and is located just four miles south of the state capitol. Homes don’t turn over very often in this area because they tend to stay in the family for generations.

College Greens — This neighborhood is home to Sac State, but it isn’t necessarily just a college town. College Greens offers its residents more home and yard space than you would find in Midtown or East Sac.
