Elk Grove, California, located 15 miles south of Sacramento, is the fastest growing city in the country—making it a great place to buy real estate. Originally founded in 1850 as a historic stage stop, this old west gold rush city with agricultural roots has enjoyed close ties with Sacramento, until being incorporated as a city itself on July 1, 2000.

Located on Highway 99, Elk Grove is conveniently located halfway between Sacramento, California’s state capital, and Stockton. The Sacramento International Airport is a quick drive away, and Elk Grove offers easy access to the Bay Area entertainment and businesses, as well as the outdoor recreation of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

Present day Elk Grove has become a booming Sacramento suburb, due primarily to its affordable homes and great employment opportunities. While many commute to work in nearby Sacramento, Elk Grove itself has a wide range of rapidly developing technology, professional service, and retail businesses. This friendly, family oriented community also has a multitude of condominiums and townhomes available on local real estate listings.

Rapid growth means that properties sell quickly, so working with an experienced local real estate agent is the best way to find the right home for you and your family. Your realtor will also be able to give you updated information on local recreation, like the Emerald Lakes Golf Center, as well as the many parks, restaurants, senior services, and educational resources the city has to offer.
