Sonoma Overview
Sonoma, CA has a population of 32,678 based on the most recent Census Bureau estimated of July 2018. Sonoma, located in the California’s famed wine country, is the heart of Sonoma County, in the Sonoma Valley, and its greater metropolitan area of nearly 500,000 residents. Sonoma is a heartbeat away from the San Francisco-Oakland area, which is located a mere 44 miles due south along U.S. Highway 101. Sonoma is adjacent to another famous wine making region, Napa Valley, CA, which is 14 miles East along California Highway 121.
Why live in Sonoma, CA?
What appealing things can make you consider a move to Sonoma, CA? Well for starters, Sonoma Valley is famous for its wines.
