About Sacramento

Sacramento is a large coastal city (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of California. With a population of 407,075 people and 105 constituent neighborhoods, Sacramento is the seventh largest community in California.

Unlike some cities, Sacramento isn't mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Sacramento are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Sacramento is a city of sales and office workers, professionals, and service providers. There are especially a lot of people living in Sacramento who work in office and administrative support jobs (18.86%), sales jobs (9.74%), and management occupations (8.09%).

Also of interest is that Sacramento has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

Sacramento is one of the most attractive larger cities for people who are young, single, educated, and upwardly-mobile career starters. This makes it a good place to live for young singles in their 20s and 30s and who have undergraduate or graduate degrees and are starting their professional careers. Although Sacramento is a large city, this demographic is significant enough that young professionals will find many others like themselves here, with really good opportunities for friendships, recreation, romance, and more.

The city is also nautical, which means that parts of Sacramento are somewhat historic and bounded by the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.

Sacramento is one of the most car-oriented large cities in America. A full 89.9% of people drive their car alone to work each day. If you like to drive, you'll love it. And you better. Because walking to work is just not a viable option for most people who live in Sacramento. Highways, wide streets, parking lots, and shopping centers are part of the common Sacramento landscape.
