Eclectic urban offerings in such a beautiful historical setting attracts a diverse blend of residents. Midtown is home to a large Asian community, as well as Lavender Heights, home to many of Sacramento’s LGBT community, both in terms of residents and business owners. Architecture ranges from stately Victorian mansions to modern upscale lofts. Sacramento Regional Transit District light-rail lines connect the neighborhood homes to the hip metropolitan area, providing an easy commute for workers and revelers alike.

Midtown’s rich history echoes from every street corner, with impressive century-old trees and historical landmarks including Sutter’s Fort, Sacramento Memorial Auditorium and the former Governor’s Mansion. Public transportation has been instrumental in Midtown’s growth since the early days: horse-drawn trams began transporting citizens into the area as early as 1858. Today, the past and present stand side by side in the streets of Midtown, it’s residents, businesses and properties representing a dynamic mixture of history and progress.
