West Sacramento seems to get a rough deal many times when people are discussing the Sacramento region. With much of the city located next to downtown Sacramento it is a growing community that has a lot to offer.

One way the community is changing is to continue to build then connection between the two cities. Early in 2009 the City of West Sacramento will take over a set of abandoned rail lines and plans are to build a path that connects the two communities. Anything that promotes walking and bike riding should be supported. KCRA recently ran a story about this project.
