According to Joanne “Jo” Barragan, Real Estate Broker Associate at eXp Realty of California and 20-year local, Northeast Auburn is the type of neighborhood where San Franciscan travelers “passing through to get to Tahoe” pull off Interstate 80 to grab a quick bite at the country store and end up wanting to stay. Barragan, a native San Franciscan, shares this story since she used to “come and visit Auburn every summer and just fell in love with the charm.” Like many locals, she appreciates how Northeast Auburn offers diverse dining and retail options alongside tranquil residential and natural areas, all while being less than 10 minutes away from downtown and Old Town Auburn.

Homes

Contemporary and ranch-style homes with brick and wood siding are standard in the Northeast Auburn neighborhood. Most homes are one to two stories with three to five bedrooms, wide driveways and two-car garages. These typically list between $400,000 and $685,000, while new construction in the area starts at $1 million. Recently built and upcoming properties either look entirely custom or mimic Modern style with flat slab roofing, clean lines and deep earthy hues. Spacious cul-de-sacs are lined with neatly maintained grassy lawns and lush clusters of trees that hug the sides and backs of homes.

Schools

Students can begin their education at Auburn Elementary School, which has a C rating on Niche. The school has many annual traditions that students can participate in, such as their Fall Festival, Panther Dash and year-end staff versus fifth-grade kickball game. Bowman Charter School, serving kindergarten through eighth-grade students, is the closest tuition-free school for middle schoolers. It has an A-minus rating from Niche.

High schoolers can attend Placer High School in the nearby Auburn neighborhood. It earns an A-minus rating on Niche for its AP and gifted program. The school also offers special extracurriculars that help connect students with their community, like the Leos Club, a youth branch of the Auburn Lions Club nonprofit that has served the Auburn area for over 50 years.

Parks

Northeast Auburn sits parallel to Auburn State Recreation Area, a sprawling nature park on the American River with extensive hiking trails, campgrounds and whitewater boating. Both the entrance to the park’s campgrounds and its trail parking area are about 4 miles away from the neighborhood. Barragan says it’s also “a popular spot for community events like the free-to-attend annual Harvest Festival” that features live music, themed contests, and artisan vendor booths hosted by local nonprofits.

Ashford Park is a more casual spot where locals can explore the outdoors. Families enjoy the ample green space by making use of its off-leash dog park, duck and fishing pond, year-round creek, picnic shelter with barbecue pits, playground and restrooms.

Shopping and Dining

Ikeda’s is Northeast Auburn’s most well-known market; it’s where travelers pull off I-80 to stretch their legs and grab some snacks, and locals like to buy groceries. The market sells fresh produce, meats and healthy whole foods and has a deli and bakery. They are most known for their handmade fruit pies. Items are priced slightly higher than in other markets, but locals appreciate their products being locally sourced. For a sit-down meal, Awful Annie’s is a popular pick. The restaurant serves traditional American fare for breakfast and lunch, and local TV station KCRA has awarded the spot the title of “Best Breakfast in Sacramento” six years in a row.

The Auburn Ravine Shopping Center is a local go-to for retail shopping. There are a variety of clothing and personal care stores in the shopping center, as well as the Humane Society of the Sierra Foothills Used Book Store.

Transportation

I-80 runs north to south through the center of the neighborhood, so commuting locals use the freeway frequently. However, residents also have access to Auburn Transit, the primary public transportation service for all neighborhoods in the city of Auburn. It offers numerous services, from public bus routes to a ride-share service specific to Auburn city limits called Auburn OnDemand.

Auburn Municipal Airport is 3 1/2 miles from the neighborhood and offers locals access to air ambulances, flight instruction, private charters and scenic tours. The airport’s location is above the fog line, making it consistently clear for flights year-round.
