The City of Citrus Heights was incorporated on January 1, 1997. Conveniently located between downtown Sacramento and Roseville, Citrus Heights is an easy commute to nearly all major employment zones in greater Sacramento, including Rancho Cordova, Folsom, Natomas, and South Placer County. The City has established itself as an important suburb in the Sacramento region with its solid base of small businesses, retail chains, and food service establishments.
