West Scaramento Living
Sacramento is the proud capitol of California and is conveniently located 85 miles from San Francisco and 100 miles from Lake Tahoe. With its exceptional growth in recent years and a population of nearly 1.4 million (Sacramento County), it is no longer a secret that Sacramento Real Estate is so desirable.
Some of the areas of interest in Sacramento are Old Sacramento, Downtown and Midtown. Old Sacramento is a 12-block restored district between the river and Interstate 5. It has abundant nightlife including restaurants with majestic views of the river, a comedy club, a live theatre and shopping. A focus of downtown is the Downtown Plaza, with its department stores and specialty clothing. Beyond the plaza you’ll find the K Street Mall, with the Crest Theatre, and further down is the Esquire IMAX Theatre. In a Victorian mansion in Downtown Sacramento, the Crocker Art Museum is the oldest public art museum west of the Mississippi.
Downtown Sacramento Homes for sale can range from single family, multifamily Victorians, to upscale lofts and condominiums. Recently, Downtown Sacramento has seen an astounding arrival of choice ethnic dining as a variety of chic and sophisticated restaurants have opened. This list includes in alphabetical order:
