Rohnert Park, Planned residential city in Sonoma County, California, United States
Rohnert Park is a planned city in Sonoma County spanning 7 square miles with neighborhoods arranged alphabetically from A to H. Bike paths and tree-lined streets connect the different areas throughout the city.
The city was founded on land that was formerly part of Rancho Cotate and incorporated in 1962 after Waldo Emerson Rohnert developed the area's agricultural focus. His work in seed farming shaped the original use of the region.
Each residential section has its own park and elementary school that shapes neighborhood identity and brings people together. This layout encourages neighbors to interact regularly and share outdoor spaces.
The Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit provides commuter service to help residents get around. Highway 101 links the area to San Francisco, which is located about 50 miles to the south.
Sonoma Mountain Village is a 200-acre development that focuses on solar power and cutting waste to nearly zero. This project demonstrates new approaches to building sustainably in the region.
