Approximately 17 miles from the state capital, Elk Grove is one of the fastest growing areas in the county, doubling in size from 1990 to 2000. Despite that growth, which has swelled the newly incorporated town’s population of over 133,000, the community has managed to retain its special small-town charm. City fathers have taken steps to ensure that business and residential developments don't displace the natural beauty of the region by preserving open spaces such as the Cosumnes River Preserve and the Stone Lakes Wildlife Refuge.
Employment opportunities in Elk Grove can be found in the industries of educational, health and social services, public administration and retail trade.
