Northgate, Sacramento, CA
Neighborhood Reviews & Questions
Northgate is a working-class neighborhood in the South Natomas and North Sacramento transition, strung along the Northgate Boulevard corridor north of downtown near the river. The housing is a mix of postwar single-family and a heavy share of apartments, an affordable and practical part of the area with the everyday retail, markets, and services lined up along Northgate Boulevard itself. It is well placed for the freeways, with I-5 and Business 80 close and a quick line to downtown, and the river and Gardenland are nearby. The honest picture includes heavy arterial traffic on Northgate, industrial and freeway edges, and upkeep that varies block to block. The appeal is affordability and a central-north location with strong freeway access. It is a no-frills, convenient corridor neighborhood where the value is in the price and the location.
