CITRUS HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOODS
Citrus Heights covers about 14 square miles, and its areas differ by their corridors, their parks and their distance to Interstate 80.
Sunrise Boulevard and Greenback Lane
This is the city's main retail crossroads and the home of Sunrise Mall. The Sunrise Tomorrow plan, adopted by the city in 2021, guides mixed-use redevelopment of the mall property over many years. As of October 2026 the mall is partly open. Nearby residential areas include Birdcage Heights and Sunrise Ranch.
Sylvan Corners and Old Auburn Road
Sylvan Corners sits at the geographic center of the city. The area was called Sylvan until a developer renamed it Citrus Heights in 1910. Sylvan Road and Old Auburn Road meet Auburn Boulevard here, and neighborhood names such as Sylvan Oaks and Sylvan Park carry the history forward.
Rusch Park and Arcade Creek

North Toward Roseville and Antelope

HOMES IN CITRUS HEIGHTS
Citrus Heights is largely built out, so most homes for sale are resales, with a small number of newer homes near Greenback Lane.
Homes from the 1960s to the 1980s
Housing tracts spread out from the Sunrise and Greenback corridors in the 1970s and 1980s, and they make up much of the city. Most are single-family homes on conventional lots. Updates vary from home to home, so a close look at each one matters.
Larger Lots and Early Subdivisions
The area was divided into 10-acre lots in 1910, and some parts of the city still have larger parcels from early subdivision. If lot size matters to you, Eva can filter listings by acreage and show you where the bigger parcels are.
Newer Homes at Mitchell Village
KB Home built Mitchell Village, a 56-acre community near Sunrise Boulevard and Greenback Lane with about 260 homes in three communities. The first owners moved in during 2021. Heritage at Mitchell Village is the largest of the three, with one and two-story plans.
Condominiums, Townhomes and Manufactured Homes
The city also has condominiums, townhomes and manufactured home communities, which suit buyers who want less upkeep or a smaller footprint. Eva can search these property types for you and explain how fees and ownership differ.
