Neighborhood in a Nutshell:

East Sacramento is known for its abundance of tree-canopied streets, the elegant homes of the “Fabulous 40’s” and McKinley Park, which has a beautiful rose garden and hosts food truck events, concerts, and movie nights for the community. The area has a growing dining scene, with everything from casual cafes to refined farm-to-fork restaurants, plus popular craft breweries and artisan coffee shops. It’s both walkable and bikeable, with downtown being a short 2.5 mile commute making it an ideal location for those professionals working in the city, that don’t want live in a busy city environment.
