Golf in Elk Grove

Elk Grove is a city in Sacramento County in the Central Valley, south of Sacramento. The city has expanded dramatically from its origins as a small agricultural community and is among the faster-growing cities in California. Elk Grove provides a suburban residential base for workers commuting to Sacramento, with Interstate 5 and State Route 99 providing highway connections to the capital. The local economy includes retail, healthcare, a growing technology sector, and government employment accessible from the city. Sacramento County's southern communities occupy flat valley terrain on the Sacramento Valley floor, with agriculture still present on the community's expanding edges. The city has a developing downtown area and numerous planned residential developments that have defined its recent growth. Laguna, Sheldon, and other former agricultural areas have been absorbed into the broader Elk Grove city limits.
