Neighborhood Reviews & Questions

Neighborhood Review
Key Words: Recreation Adjacent, Established Pocket, Downtown Proximity

Mission Hills is a small residential pocket in central Rocklin, wedged among Antelope Oaks, the downtown, and the newer communities that surround it. Its size keeps it low-key, a compact set of streets rather than a sprawling subdivision, sitting close to the middle of the city where the older and newer parts of Rocklin meet. That central spot is the practical draw: downtown Rocklin, the Sunset corridor, and everyday shopping are all a short drive off, and the streets themselves stay quiet away from the arterials. There is little marquee here to point to, which is rather the point of a small interior pocket like this one.
