    Living in Sacramento, CA

    Living in location

    Sacramento is the capital city of California and is known for its rich history, burgeoning economy and laidback culture. Situated at the confluence of the Sacramento River and the American River, it was initially settled by Spanish explorers in the early 19th century. The city later boomed as part of the Gold Rush and eventually was named the state capitol in 1879. Today, local renters can visit Old Sacramento to get a taste of the city's history, and Sacramento is one of the fastest-growing cities in California due to its booming economy. While state government workers make up the vast majority of Sacramento renters, there are also plenty of opportunities in technology and health care. In particular, foodies are often drawn to rent in Sacramento due to the city's innovative "Farm to Fork" movement, which uses local produce. Craft coffee, beer and wine are also prevalent here. Notably, Sacramento experiences warm weather all year long, and there are plenty of ways for renters to enjoy it - from bike trails to minor league baseball games to visiting the excellent Sacramento Zoo.

    The city also takes pride in its green spaces, with numerous parks and recreational areas that offer an escape from the urban landscape. Events such as the annual Sacramento Music Festival and the Sacramento Film & Music Festival draw crowds from across the state, showcasing the city's appreciation for the arts.

    Renting in Sacramento, CA

    Sacramento offers rental options for everyone, whether you're looking for a traditional downtown apartment building, a cozy single-family home or something in between. Here, the downtown and midtown neighborhoods are laid out on a grid system, which gives them a more walkable, urban feel. Meanwhile, neighborhoods outside of the grid are more traditionally suburban and consist mainly of single-family homes and small condo buildings. Rental properties in Sacramento also tend to be very quiet and peaceful, with an atmosphere more reminiscent of a small town than a big city. There are also architecture styles from many different eras represented here, and apartments in Sacramento feature everything from Victorian to craftsman to mid-century modern architecture. Likewise, Sacramento's renter base is also quite diverse, with many different racial and cultural backgrounds, as well as a prominent LGBTQ+ community. However, because Sacramento has grown very quickly in recent years, rental prices have also increased. As such, renters can expect to pay higher prices than the national average, but still lower prices than other large cities in California.
