Neighborhood Reviews & Questions
Kirkland Place occupies the northwest corner of Foothill Farms, the closest of these pockets to Watt Avenue and the North Highlands line. It is a modest tract grid of mostly single-story homes from the community's main build-out decades, laid out on the small lots typical of north Sacramento County. The location leans on Watt Avenue for its shopping and its connections, which means the arterial and its traffic are never far, but it also puts services and bus routes close at hand. Interstate 80 is a straightforward drive south. Open space is the ordinary neighborhood-park kind rather than anything regional. The candid part is that this is an affordable, older, working grid with the uneven maintenance and elevated-crime backdrop that runs through this side of the county, not a manicured suburb. Twin Rivers schools serve it. For buyers weighing the northwest edge of Foothill Farms against neighboring North Highlands, Kirkland Place trades polish for price.
