Roseville named Best City to Retire in California

The Journal of Retirement Research recently named Roseville as the Best City to Retire in California. The appeal of affordable housing, a low poverty rate, and a strong senior community (nearly 19% of the population are seniors) makes Roseville an ideal place to settle down during retirement years.

4th of July: Be part of the celebration

Celebrate Independence Day with a full day of fun. The 4th of July parade kicks off in Downtown Roseville at 9 a.m. After the parade, enjoy live music, kids’ activities and family fun at Royer Park. End the day with a spectacular fireworks show at @the Grounds starting at 9:15 p.m.

Want to be in the parade? Good news—the deadline to join has been extended to June 27!

Penalties for illegal fireworks

Illegal fireworks carry many risks, including injury, property damage, safety of first responders, costs of responding to emergencies, environmental harm and legal consequences.

In May 2024, the Roseville City Council amended the municipal code, making penalties for those who use illegal fireworks much more severe.

Penalties for illegal fireworks include stiffer fines, more severe legal consequences, liability for the cost of emergency response and additional responsibility of property owners who knowingly allow the use or storage of illegal fireworks on their property, or the street or sidewalk adjacent to their property.

Extended hours - Maidu Museum & Historic Site

The Maidu Museum & Historic Site is extending its hours in order to better serve the community. Starting July 1, you can visit Maidu Museum & Historic Site Tuesday through Sunday, from 9 a.m.–4 p.m.

It’s the perfect time to rediscover this incredible place and learn about the Nisenan Maidu people who lived here for thousands of years. If you haven’t been in a while (or ever) the current art exhibit and programs for all ages, make it well worth the visit.

Utility work to close trail between Royer and Saugstad Parks

The trail connecting Royer Park and Saugstad Park will be closed for several weeks starting in late June due to Roseville Environmental Utilities work.

Trail users can exit ahead of the closure by using the pedestrian bridge connecting to Taylor Street to continue southbound. To continue northbound, exit at the Saugstad park-and-ride lot.

One-time fees vs. monthly bills: why rates still rise

Just like your grocery bill, utility costs are rising. Materials, energy, and labor all cost more. We’re investing in upgrades to stay resilient, meet stricter environmental standards, and prepare for the future. We work hard to keep costs low and service reliable, but when rate adjustments happen, we ensure we can continue doing the job right while balancing affordability.

Your water: safe, clean, and still meeting the mark

The results are in! Roseville’s latest water quality report shows that our water continues to meet or exceed all state and federal standards for safety and quality.

Every year, we test according to federal and state regulations to ensure that the water coming out of your tap is clean and reliable. We’re proud to say that the 2024 data confirms we're not just compliant, but also consistent.
