Quality Living

 

Petaluma strikes the perfect balance between urban arts and organic farming where great food comes from local farms. Known for its historic downtown, art galleries, theaters, and great food, Petaluma is also surrounded by rolling hills, wineries and dairies.

Local residents enjoy the outdoors in the City's many parks and reserves and children have access to a variety of quality public, private and alternative charter schools.
