Sacramento

85 MILES FROM CHICO
Not only is Sacramento the capital of California, but it is also home to the Sacramento Kings and Sacramento International Airport, just a 90-minute drive from Chico. The seventh largest city in California, the downtown’s modern architecture retains a smaller-city feel. But don’t let that fool you; Sacramento also has thriving industry and a lively nightlife.
