Relocating to Sacramento?

Home Buyer Resource Guide Map of Sac AreaHome Buyers, welcome to our great State of California. The map pictured to the left is of the Sacramento and surrounding areas and when clicked, the map can be enlarged.

It is awesome when thinking about where you want to live, just in the Sacramento area. Sacramento is very large and has many great Cities to choose from. I have provided a map for you to become familiar with the four Counties, Sacramento County, El Dorado County, Placer County and Yolo County. This will be the first step in helping you locate where you, the home buyer would like to live. I hope this proves helpful to you especially when trying to determine the best fit for your needs. The following links below will give you a start towards finding out more about Sacramento, CA (known as the City of Trees). Be sure to visit the Chamber of Commerce sites below for details on each of the Counties to determine which one would best fit your individual needs.

This is the official CA website where if you are relocating from another State you may want to visit and find information about DMV all the way to the great back roads where you can discover what CA has to offer.

And for information about the City of Sacramento, visit the City of Sacramento's Official website.

Now, you may need a map to find your way around our Great City, Sacramento. The streets Downtown are fairly simple, just the letters of the alphabet and numbers.

Now, that you are in Sacramento, you should go on over to "Old Sac." It will take you back to the "old west days." Take a ride in a horse-driven carriage, eat at one of the many saloons, visit the train museum or the first little school house and shop til you drop. Take a photo by the Delta Queen paddle boat, or just relax and take in the Delta. Speaking of the Delta, this where 2 whales in May 2007 decided to roam 80 miles up from San Francisco to take a spin. "Old Sac" is where John Sutter back in 1839 settled. Most people don't know that there is another street level below the wooden planks through the cobblestone town of "Old Sac." Back in the flood days what was a second floor is now the ground floor in Old Sac as well as the prior Governor's mansion.

While you are in "Old Sac" be sure to take a ride on the Delta King, you'll love it. There is so much to do in "Old Sac." The kids will enjoy the California State Railroad Museum right there in Old Sac.

And take a fun trip on the River Rotter, don't miss it out on this one!

Just a short walk through the tunnel that runs under the freeway from "Old Sac," you can start your museum tour. Sacramento offers museums, theaters and CA Missions right in Downtown Sacramento.

Now, when you return to your hotel room to relax after discovering Sacramento for the day. You might want to pick up a newspaper, the Sac Bee and catch up on the news.

You would probably like to know where a good place to have a round of golf in Sacramento is. Check out all the fees and times. While you are are teeing off, maybe the kids would like to go to the movies. Here is a listing of all the movie theaters in Sacramento. The kids will love the Runaway Stage on 24th Street, Downtown.

If Broadway shows and theater are what you are looking for this evening then check out the Broadway series and Music Circus. An evening at the Sacramento Opera is right close by on L Street in the Sacramento Community Center Theater. Or perhaps, you are in the mood for some laughter at the Punchline on Arden Way.

The Sacramento Zoo is always a favorite and located in William Land park in the Land Park area very close to Curtis Park.

How did you make the "Bookmark this article" string of logos at the bottom of your post?  It's great!

What a beautiful job!  Easy to read, great links, lots of pictures, it's perfect!

Way to represent your community!

Thanks for always being a great example for us!

Lucky, oh you are too kind. This is the first of many for those home buyers that are relocating to the Sacramento area. The next one will be a video tour and be quite appealing, I hope.

Gena,

I can't wait to see it!  I'm sure that you will do as fantastic with it as you did this!

Lucky :)

Great post, Gena. It should be in your relocation guide.  You should get all of these together and put them in a pdf to send out to your clients. -Charles

Charles, great suggestion. I will work on that and work to make better guides. Thank you.
