About this map

The community of Rio Linda and the northern reaches of Sacramento are defined by a grid of rural residential lots and significant aviation infrastructure. The landscape is characterized by the convergence of several waterways, including Steelhead Cr, Dry Cr, and Arcade Cr, which thread through the expanding suburban developments of North Highlands and Del Paso Heights. Aviation history is prominent here, with the large expanse of Mc Clellan Airfield dominating the eastern sector, complemented by smaller local strips like Rio Linda Airport and Holtsmans Airport.

Further north, the transition toward the Placer County line is marked by more open land and infrastructure like the Elverta Switchyard. Residential clusters around Elverta and Robla sit amidst numerous recreation sites, such as the Antelope Greens Golf Course and Cherry Island Golf Course. For genealogists and local historians, the Sunset Lawn Cem provides a grounded point of reference within the evolving northern Sacramento suburbs.
