The City of Santa Rosa:
Just 55 miles north of San Francisco, in the urban heart of wine country, you'll find Santa Rosa: a city with a cool vibe and vibrant culture ready and waiting to be explored.
The largest city in Sonoma County, as well as the county seat, Santa Rosa offers all the amenities of shopping, hospitals, banks and businesses and not far removed from the spectacular natural scenery that the Wine Country is famous for. Centrally located and surrounded by tourist destinations of Healdsburg, Kenwood, Glen Ellen, Sonoma and Sebastopol. Many residents commute to San Francisco -- a trek that has gotten easier thanks to the addition of the Smart Train, carpool lanes and road-widening initiatives. In the next decade, it plans to be a very vibrant job center with a young workforce.
City highlights:
Old Courthouse Square is the center of downtown Santa Rosa and is surrounded by numerous shops and restaurants.
Historic neighborhoods, including Railroad Square, West End, and Cherry Street District, give Santa Rosa its quintessential small-town feel. Old mansions and Victorians can still be found downtown near tree-lined McDonald Avenue, perhaps the most beautiful street in Santa Rosa.
Activities in Santa Rosa include:
Charles M. Schulz Museum, dedicated to one of the city’s most famous former residents
Redwood Empire Ice Arena ("Snoopy's Home Ice")
Safari West wildlife preserve is located northwest Santa Rosa. As of 2017, Safari West had over 1,000 animals of approximately 98 animal species.
Downtown Santa Rosa, including the central Old Courthouse Square and historic Railroad Square, is an area of shopping, restaurants, nightclubs, and theaters

The performing arts in Santa Rosa are represented by the Sonoma County Philharmonic, the Summer Repertory Theatre, the Santa Rosa Symphony, and the 6th Street Playhouse. Santa Rosa is the home of the North Bay Theater Group, an alliance of some 40 theater companies, theater departments and individual performance companies from five North Bay counties
Due to its population, much of Santa Rosa's remaining undisturbed area is on its urban fringe. However, the principal wildlife corridors of Santa Rosa Creek and its tributaries flow right through the heart of the town. Great blue herons, great egrets, snowy egrets and black-crowned herons nest in the trees of the median strip on West Ninth Street as well as along Santa Rosa Creek and downtown. Deer often are spotted roaming the neighborhoods nearer the eastern hills, as deep into town as Franklin Avenue and the McDonald area; rafters of wild turkeys are relatively common in some areas; and mountain lions are occasionally observed within city limits. Raccoons and opossums are a common sight throughout the city, while foxes, and rabbits may be regularly seen in the more rural areas. In addition, the city borders and then wraps around the northern end of Trione Annadel State Park, which itself extends into the Sonoma Mountains and Sonoma Valley. Trione Annadel State Park also adjoins Spring Lake County Park and Howarth Park, forming one contiguous park system that enables visitors to venture into wild native habitats.
Santa Rosa sits at the northwestern gateway to the Sonoma, Healdsburg and Napa Valleys of California's famed Wine Country.
Santa Rosa has a warm-summer Mediterranean climate with cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers.
