West Sacramento Audioguides

West Sacramento, a vibrant city located just across the river from Sacramento, offers travelers a unique blend of modern living and rich history. Originally part of a larger region inhabited by Native American tribes, the area saw significant transformation with European settlers in the 19th century.

The roots of West Sacramento can be traced back to the establishment of the City of Sacramento in 1849. The area that is now West Sacramento was largely undeveloped until the late 1800s when a series of levees and drainage projects turned the marshy land into usable territory.
