    Living in Fair Oaks, CA

    Fair Oaks is a small town in northern California. It has a very traditional small-town feel and is a popular place to rent for both retirees and families. Fair Oaks is very quiet and safe and has a relatively low crime rate. However, it is just a short drive from Sacramento, offering an easy commute for renters who work downtown. Fair Oaks is known for its lush foliage and proximity to the American River. It was originally settled as a rural town, and there are still flocks of chickens that run around town. While most of Fair Oaks is residential, there is a small downtown area with local restaurants and a town square that’s very popular with renters. This area hosts festivals and other events during the summer.

    Renting in Fair Oaks, CA

    Fair Oaks has a mix of low-rise apartment buildings and single-family homes available for rent. Most neighborhoods in Fair Oaks are very spread out, and many rental properties have large yards and plenty of privacy. The architecture in Fair Oaks is very reminiscent of a classic American small town. Many rental homes in this area date back to the mid-20th century, but there is some new construction as well. Many Fair Oaks residents own their homes, so there isn’t a huge selection of rental properties available. When renting a home or an apartment here, residents can expect to pay a security deposit before moving in, which is usually equivalent to one or two months’ rent. Properties for rent in Fair Oaks tend to be more affordable than in other parts of California.

    Things for renting

    Shopping in Fair Oaks, CA

    Because Fair Oaks is mainly a residential community, there aren’t many places for renters to shop in town. The downtown Fair Oaks area has some small locally owned boutiques that renters can explore. The closest strip mall is located on the north end of town at Madison Avenue and Sunrise Boulevard. This shopping center features a Trader Joe’s, a Smart & Final, and a Joann’s craft store. There are other large stores just a short drive outside of the Fair Oaks area, so local renters don’t have to travel too far to pick up essential goods. These include Safeway, Target, Sam’s Club, and more. For more upscale shopping options, renters can drive to the Fountains at Roseville or the Palladio Shopping Center. These are both outdoor malls with high-end fashion retailers and restaurants.

    Transportation in Fair Oaks, CA

    Fair Oaks is a very traditional suburban community, which means that most neighborhoods in this area are not very walkable. Having a car is the easiest and fastest way for local renters to get around, and most rental properties have parking to accommodate this. Traffic can get congested in Fair Oaks during peak commute hours, particularly when crossing the American River to access the highway. The Sacramento Regional Transit District runs some buses in Fair Oaks. Renters can use these buses to connect to the broader Sacramento bus and light rail system. The nearest light rail stop is located across the American River in Rancho Cordova.
