Loomis, CA

Loomis is a small incorporated town in Placer County, northeast of Sacramento and near the Sierra foothills. Its early names changed several times as the railroad and post office developed, from Placer to Smithville to Pino before becoming Loomis. The town has kept more of a rural-residential and small-town feel than nearby Roseville or Rocklin, with Del Oro High School, local businesses, orchards, and foothill roads shaping daily life. Loomis works well for people who want Placer County access without a fully suburban feel.
