Historic sights and adjacent to vineyards in this Lodi neighborhood
In Downtown Lodi, people love their wine. This lively neighborhood, filled with homes predating the 1950s, is close to small businesses, neighborhood parks and nearly 80 wineries. “Lodi has always probably sold more wine grapes than Napa Valley,” says Margo Cook, co-owner at Schaffer and Company Realtors and lifelong resident. “Our sandy loam soil has good drainage for an industry like grape-growing.” Downtown has several wine-tasting venues pouring zinfandel and cabernet sauvignon to customers. Historic buildings are here, like the white mission revival-style Lodi Arch and the Italian Renaissance Revival-style Lodi Opera House, both listed on the national historic register. Downtown had the first A&W Root Beer Shop, which exists today as only a historical marker. Cook says people enjoy walking down the street and catching up with neighbors, and the community comes together for annual events like the Lodi Street Faire and seasonal farmers market.
Vintage homes within walking distance of parks and museums
Single-family homes sit within walking distance of locally owned eateries and neighborhood parks. Paved, residential streets are laid out in a grid, and properties sit side-by-side near wide sidewalks. “I call it, ‘romantically overgrown, with drooping things here and there,’” Cook says. Remodeled early 20th-century bungalows and ranch-style homes scattered throughout the community have stucco exteriors, short cement driveways and fenced-in backyards. Some homes include back patios and small sheds. These bungalows and ranch-style home prices range from $200,000 to $450,000. Vintage Colonial-Revival and Craftsman homes built between the 1920s and ‘30s sit along Oak and Walnut Street on the northwestern side of the neighborhood; these three to four-bedroom renovated properties feature large, open porches, tall, vine-covered fences and fruit trees near walk-up entrances. Prices range from $750,000 to $1 million. Owners of the neighborhood’s designated historic homes tend to hold onto them for years.

I've grown up and been here all my life. It's a fairly small town, with not much to do but I like the quaint feeling of it all. It's nice to take a walk around, visit Lodi Lake and go for a jog.
