Located just south of Sacramento, Elk Grove is the second-largest city in Sacramento County. Situated between the waterways of the California Delta and beautiful wine country, this tech-friendly city maintains a small-town feel. Known for its outstanding school district, friendly and diverse population, this is an excellent place for families to settle down.

Elk Grove is a happening place to be. From food truck festivals to parades, there's something going on almost every weekend here in the city. An annual event since 1957, The Elk Grove Western Festival and Parade offers an entire weekend filled with entertainment. Local winery McConnell Estates hosts year-round live-music and art events for all ages. And don't miss the Giant Pumpkin Festival in September. What started 25 years ago as a small harvest festival has grown to a huge event attracting a crowd of around 50,000 each year.

Outdoor lovers are sure to find something in Elk Grove to bring them joy. The Cosumnes River Preserve is a great place for birders to go check out a wide array of migratory species on over 50,000 acres of wildlife habitat. The visitor center shows ever-changing interpretive displays and interactive educational exhibits. It even has picnic tables and restroom facilities for guests. Stone Lakes National Wildlife Refuge is one of only a few urban refuges in the country. Admission and the guided hikes and paddle trips are free. The refuge also hosts special events, environmental education tours, and waterfowl hunting.

This city was built for families. There are countless public parks designed to provide endless hours of play for children. Derr-Okamoto Park is a 21-acre park with a basketball court, playground, picnic, and BBQ areas, as well as a skatepark and a splash pad.
