Located on Interstate 80 northeast of Sacramento, this fast-growing suburban community still has links to its Gold Rush past and quarrying days in buildings in its historic section.  Both older and newer homes are available in Rocklin, including locations in the 3,500-acre Stanford Ranch, a master-planned community.

Shopping is easy with quick access to the new Roseville regional mall, the Galleria at Roseville. Three community parks and 19 neighborhood parks are available in Rocklin, which is also close to Folsom Lake, a state recreation area that offers boating, swimming, fishing, hiking, sailing and much more.
