Why Live in River Park

River Park in Sacramento is a neighborhood known for its mid-20th-century ranch-style homes, shaded by mature elm and maple trees. The area has low turnover, with homes often staying within families, and properties near Caleb Greenwood Elementary and Glenn Hall Park are particularly sought after. The neighborhood features wide sidewalks and mint green lampposts. Homebuyers should be aware of potential underground pipe damage from tree roots, a common issue in older Sacramento communities. Despite being set on a floodplain, the levee system reduces flood risk, and flood insurance is not mandatory. The American River borders River Park, offering small riverfront beaches and sandy coves for swimming and kayaking. Dirt-packed bike trails and gravel walkways along the levee are popular for morning walks. Glenn Hall Park includes playgrounds, sports fields, and a summer pool. Youth soccer and baseball leagues, particularly at Ciavarella Field, are significant community activities. The neighborhood shopping center on Carlson Drive includes Mamma Susanna’s Ristorante Italiano and Roosters Breakfast & Mimosas, along with other small businesses. River Park is accessible from two intersections on H Street, with a 4-mile commute to Downtown Sacramento and proximity to major highways. Sacramento Regional Transit bus routes serve the area, and Mercy General Hospital is less than 2 miles away. The neighborhood is also close to California State University Sacramento, fostering a strong community connection through volunteer efforts at local schools and youth programs. The River Park Neighborhood Association organizes events like the Fourth of July Parade and tree plantings.
