Rancho Cordova is one of the Sacramento area’s biggest business centers, attracting thousands of commuters from around the region every day. The active commercial sector makes it highly convenient spot for in-town professionals, and the close proximity to Sacramento makes it an appealing community for folks who work in and around the capital city as well.

While industry is a major part of the local character, the environment is surprisingly suburban, with extensive quiet neighborhoods, playgrounds, and shopping centers all over town. Locals love to spend time in the numerous public parks along the American River, as well as up the road at Folsom Lake and Eldorado National Forest.
