1992 Map of Rio Linda

Hydrological features like Dry Creek and the Main Drainage Canal intersect the suburban grid, while historic pockets like Elverta and Robla maintain their distinct identities amidst the urban sprawl of Sacramento. Local landmarks such as the Rio Linda Airport and Sunset Lawn Cemetery provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians, while the northern reaches transition into more open spaces like Gibson Ranch County Park near the boundary of Placer County.
