Local know-how

From the south end of the county

Galt is farm country at the southern edge of Sacramento County, known for its large weekly open-air market. Every airport trip heads north through Elk Grove and Sacramento.

That means the busiest part of the drive is in the middle, on I-5 through the city; before dawn it is clear, at rush hour it is not.

For farm addresses, a landmark or gate description helps your driver find you in the dark.
