Northeast Auburn offers shopping and suburbia
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.

Ashford Park and Auburn State Recreation Area draw locals outdoors
