    I believe that South Land Park is one of the best places to grow up and live. It's central location to the two major public schools of Sacramento, John F Kennedy, and C K McClatchy creates a very diverse surrounding area. Diversity is the breeding ground for greatness. The best minds come from learning about different cultures and understanding different perspectives. South Land Park is the place to be.

    This area is in between other areas such as Natomas and Elk Grove. It is still close enough distance wise in between smaller parts of the city such as East Sacramento, Land Park, West Sacramento, Greenhaven/Pocket. Sacramento is such a commuter city, in between Tahoe and San Francisco. It is right in the middle and provides plenty of day trip opportunities to explore California's coast or it's cities. I would live here because it will always be home no matter what. It has so much diversity compared to other states and cities. It is full of liveliness, culture, history, and the people of Sacramento make it come alive with their spirit for our NBA basketball team, our access to the Sacramento and American River and ability to enjoy this water during those notorious Sacramento heat waves. No matter what you do here, you can always find a great place to eat, people to talk to, and something to take a picture of as it is a capital city.
    I've lived here for 9 years and I absolutely love it here. The atmosphere is inviting and there are birds chirping and friendly people walking the block or walking with their kids or pets. There are hidden charms here and I'd like to see more thriving businesses in the area. We would like to see a food store with great deals and more small businesses to support.
