Data Resource Center
Data Resource Center
SACOG creates and maintains a tremendous quantity of data about the Sacramento region which covers El Dorado, Placer, Sacramento, Sutter, Yolo and Yuba Counties and the cities within each county. Please note that SACOG does not cover the Tahoe Basin portions of El Dorado or Placer County nor the City of South Lake Tahoe. Those geographies are covered by the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) however many data sources do not break out the Tahoe Basin separately.
This website contains only a small portion of the data that are available. If we don’t have the data you’re looking for, we may be able to refer you to another source(s) of information. Please email info@sacog.org or call SACOG’s front desk (916) 321-9000 for more information.
