Elk Grove: Straddling Past and Future

Established In 1850 as a hotel town and stage coach sleepover stop, Elk Grove, California, is located about 15 miles south of historic Sutter’s Fort. Over the next century, the area became a crossroads for business, entertainment, mail service and agriculture, and acted as home base for gold miners in nearby communities. After playing a crucial role in the early gold rush and statehood history in California, a close-knit community evolved with a distinctly rural and western lifestyle.
Despite its close proximity to California’s capital city, Elk Grove remained quietly independent of Sacramento’s growth and development as it expanded into adjoining countrywide areas until the 1980’s. Now straddling Highway 99 in the southern portion of Sacramento County, halfway between Sacramento and Stockton, the community is within easy driving distance from both the Bay Area and Sierra Mountain resorts.
Elk Grove had its start in agriculture and farming is still a big part of the area’s economy, with vineyards, dairy and cattle and row crops; but, today, the City of Elk Grove, California, also is home to industries of the future like high technology, professional services, and expanding commercial and retail enterprises.
