Wheatland is a small farming community in the Central Valley
Wheatland lies in California's Central Valley, a region known as America’s Breadbasket. The rural center has dairy farms, almond orchards and Main Street retail. “People like the small-town feel, with a lot going on at the schools and 4H. A lot of people love that lifestyle. Kids raise animals for the fair, and there are a lot of farmers,” says Realtor Kelly Zimmerman, who works with eXp Realty of California. The area’s sleepy setting is livened by concerts at a nearby amphitheater and a popular pumpkin patch in autumn. Of Wheatland’s approximately 4,000 residents, many work at the Beale Air Force Base. “We're close to the military base, so a lot of people get stationed here and like it so much they don’t leave,” Zimmerman says.

Wheatland Manufactured Home Park, a 55-plus community, offers manufactured homes just a block away from Main Street. The city then expands with ranch-style homes. On the edges of the community, there are subdivisions with cul-de-sacs of contemporary homes, some built in 2025. Manufactured homes range from $130,000 to $190,000, while single-family homes built onsite range from $260,000 to $600,000. “We're a bedroom community for the county, so it has lower prices than Lincoln and Rocklin, and we’re so close to that area,” Zimmerman says. The median sales price in Wheatland is $500,000, compared to Rocklin’s median of $688,000. “I'd say the market overall has always been very strong in Wheatland.

On the west side of Wheatland, McDevitt Park offers a playground, a basketball hoop and a picnic pavilion.
