Sonoma County New Home Information

Sonoma County's total area of 1,768 square miles is located on the northern coast and is the southwestern county of California's Wine Country region, which also includes Napa, Mendocino, and Lake counties. It has 13 approved American Viticultural Areas and over 250 wineries. While Sonoma's new home residents enjoy the area, the county sees more than 7.4 million visitors each year, spending more than $1 billion in 2006.

The county lies in the North Coast Ranges of northwestern California. Its ranges include the Mayacamas and the Sonoma Mountains. The Sonoma Valley itself includes not only the City of Sonoma, but a portion of the City of Santa Rosa and the unincorporated new home communities of Kenwood, Agua Caliente, Boyes Hot Springs, and Fetters Hot Springs. Other regions of the county beyond the Sonoma Valley include, among others, the Petaluma Valley, the Santa Rosa Plain, the Russian River, the Alexander Valley, and the Dry Creek Valley. Sonoma County is bounded on the west by the Pacific Ocean, and has 76 miles of coastline. The major coastal hydrographic features are Bodega Bay, the mouth of the Russian River, and the mouth of the Gualala River, at the border with Mendocino County.

Winemaking—both the growing of the grapes and their vinting—is an important part of the economic and cultural life of Sonoma County's new home communities. In 2004, growers harvested 165,783 tons of wine grapes worth $310 million. In 2006 the Sonoma County grape harvest amounted to over 185,000 tons, exceeding Napa County's harvest by over 30%. The most common varieties planted are Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir, though the area is also known for its Merlot and Zinfandel.

New home residents appreciate other places of interest including Sonoma Coast State Beach: Arched Rock Beach, Gleason Beach and Goat Rock Beach; Bodega Bay; Luther Burbank Home and Gardens, in Santa Rosa and the Luther Burbank Gold Ridge Experiment Farm, in Sebastopol; Lake Sonoma; Tolay Lake Regional Park; Jack London State Historic Park; Rancho Petaluma Adobe; Mission San Francisco Solano; Armstrong Redwoods State Reserve; and Stillwater Cove.

Sonoma County includes 40 school districts with 179 schools serving nearly 71,000 students. The county's API scores outrank the state averages. Based on a basis of 800 points: Elementary schools scored 794 while the state average is 763, Middle schools scored 768 with the state at 720, and High schools scored 748 with the state average at 689. Higher education can be found at: Empire College, Golden Gate University, Santa Rosa Junior College, Sonoma State University, University of Northern California, and University of San Francisco.
