Just 13 miles from Sacramento, Kirkland Place is a hot market for those looking to get into real estate in a growing location. “The prices are great for first-time buyers, and people are getting in at the right time,” says Candice Tyrrell of Gonsalves Real Estate Properties, who sold a pair of homes in Kirkland Place in 2024. “Antelope, in general, is really growing so quickly, and it seems like renovations to buildings are happening all the time.” Location is key with Kirkland Place. Located near Interstate 80, locals can easily commute to Sacramento for work. The neighborhood is also near hip shopping and dining areas in Roseville and Rocklin. The area is popular with a younger crowd, as the median resident is 35 years old.
