Living In Sacramento, California
Sacramento is the fastest-growing big city in California and the 35th-biggest city in the United States. But the California capital isn’t all about politics. Sacramento has been rated the fourth most “hipster” city in the U.S., and the city claims to be America’s farm-to-fork capital since it’s surrounded by 1.5 million acres of farmland. Sacramento also is known as the City of Trees because of its abundant green cover. And the city boasts of Old Sacramento State Historic Park, which is a National Historic Landmark District. Overall, it's clear that Sacramento is a city with many faces. One of those faces is, of course, Sacramento State. The university claims its own neighborhood along the American River, bordered by East Sacramento to the west and River Park to the north. Student-focused apartment complexes have developed around the campus, and the university is close to East Sacramento restaurants and attractions like Sactown Union Brewery and the 57th Street Antique and Design Center.
Staying Safe in Sacramento
No matter where you're moving, even if it's the safest place in the world, it's going to be scary, both for students and for their worrying parents. This is normal, especially as a college student, which is why California State, Sacramento has instituted a number of security measures, both for in-person safety and online safety. The Sacramento State Police Department makes sure every one of its officers receives training suitable for all peace officers in the state of California. Campus police run a 24-hour patrol, as well as a police dispatch center, and are licensed throughout the state, even though their main jurisdiction is within one mile of campus.
