Sacramento does a beautiful job of combining urban city sprawl with peaceful small-town charm. It is the California State Capitol, home to some 2.5 million people, and buzzing with downtown entertainment, yet the city of Sacramento maintains its hometown atmosphere with lovely family-centered neighborhoods, an abundance of parks and more trees per capita than any city in the world (aside from Paris).
Behind all the small-town charm and Capitol city hustle, Sacramento has a rich music culture. It is home to Tower Records, and has seen plenty of famous bands come of age. Among the rock heroes that hail from Sacramento are the Deftones, Papa Roach, CAKE, Social Distortion and Craig Chaquico of Jefferson Starship. Sacramento is also famous for its Sacramento Jazz Jubilee, which draws thousands to the city each Memorial Day weekend.
So if you’d like to join the 2.5 million-odd folks living here, then peruse this city guide and then stroll through town looking for your happy new home in Sacramento.
The Sacramento economy is on the upswing, with stable government and healthcare industries and a growing tech sector. As the state’s capital and cultural core, and home to some twenty-three college campuses, employment opportunities abound. Among the many companies based in Sacramento, Sutter Health, Blue Diamond Growers, Aerojet, Teichert, and the McClatchy Company are the most prominent. As of 2012, the top employers were the State of California, Sacramento County, UC Davis Health System, Dignity Health, Intel, Kaiser Permanente, and Sutter Health.
