About this map

Citrus Heights and its neighboring communities are defined by a network of suburban expansion and historical burial grounds at the northern edge of the Central Valley. This survey documents the densely partitioned landscape between North Highlands and Fair Oaks, where significant institutions like American River Coll and Trinity Life Bible Coll sit alongside extensive memorial sites, including Calvary Cemetery and Sylvan Cemetery. The terrain is etched by several prominent drainage systems such as Arcade Cr and Chicken Ranch Slough, which flow westward toward the valley floor.

The American River corridor at the southern margin provides a stark contrast to the grid-patterned residential developments of Foothill Farms and Antelope. Features like Sailor Bar and Rossmoor Bar reflect the riparian character of the riverfront, while the crossing of Sunrise Blvd and Madison Ave marks the bustling commercial activity of the era. The boundary between Placer Co and Sacramento Co cuts through the northern section, separating the suburban reaches of Citrus Heights from the developing tracts near Sabre City.
