Highland Park

Roseville is an ever growing populated area located in Placer County and just 15 miles north of downtown Sacramento. It is split in half by Interstate 80 which tends to distinguish the pricing of the different areas. There is quite a mix of housing opportunities here in Roseville that has been well thought out by the city leaders. 
Roseville owes its origin to the railroad. The city took on life more than 100 years ago as a switching yard for trains that ran north and south with those that ran east and west. Trains are still a big business in Roseville, but the city's horizons have now expanded to high tech and housing for families in the fast-growing region.

Roseville offers nine acres of parks per 1,000 residents. The parks provide traditional activities such as baseball and basketball, but also a skate track, an in-line hockey rink and batting cages. Nine golf courses are located in Roseville or in the area.

In 2005, the state tallied 42,219 residential units, 31,010 single homes, 1,082 attached homes, 9,584 apartments and 543 mobile homes...and growing. Roseville has three zip codes 95661, 95678 and 95747.  The City shows its size by the the number of zip codes.

Roseville's 95678 is located West of Hwy 80 was the first zip code for Roseville and is known as Central Roseville with affordable housing in the $300,000 range and 95747 is West Roseville with an average price in the $400,000 range. As you travel eastwardly the prices continue to rise with East Roseville, 95661 having an average home price in the higher $400,000 range.

Roseville has embraced the master-planned communities which lends itself to a better look and feel as well as having city leaders who have pursued high-tech businesses and professionals. This has helped maintain the city parks and cut down on the taxes that the residents have to pay. Truly a city with great planning and fore thought. With 60,000 jobs, Roseville tries to keep the commute short for its residents. Traffic is something to reckon with but the city is always working on that issue. Lots of young families are present with plenty of opportunities for housing from apartments to custom homes.

Roseville is home to one of the largest shopping malls in the Central Valley area, called  the Galleria  (technically the name is Westfield Galleria at Roseville-but everyone calls it the Galleria) which caters to higher end stores and brings shoppers from the Sacramento area, as well. There are an incredible amount of restaurants located in Roseville with more and more coming all the time. The area in front of the Galleria is beginning to look like restaurant row...plenty to choose from for all the palates.

Elementary children attend Roseville City School District,   Dry Creek and Eureka Union School District depending on the neighborhood zip code and high school at Roseville Joint Union High. Here are a list of all schools in and around Roseville. 

Nearby is Folsom Lake, with camping, boating, swimming, fishing and miles of equestrian and biking trails. Lake Tahoe and the scenic Sierra Nevada are an easy drive up Interstate 80.

If it's shopping you want, Roseville is home to the newest regional mall in the area, the Galleria at Roseville, a spectacular facility that includes many of the major retailers in the country.

The Roseville area also includes a Sun City adult community and housing ranging from older and newer homes to apartments and townhouses.
