Auburn, California

Auburn is one of California’s earliest mining towns, situated in the heart of the Gold Country. Auburn then became a shipping and supply center of hundreds of gold camps. In 1853, Auburn became the seat of Placer County, an honor befitting its stature as an important trading center and supply depot for the mines.

Today Auburn is known for its historical landmarks, such as the cornerstone of Placer's beautiful and historic courthouse, which is clearly visible from Interstate 80 through Auburn, that was laid on July 4, 1894. The building itself was renovated during the late 1980s and continues to serve the public today with courtrooms, a historic sheriff's office and the Placer County Museum.

Auburn is also a great place to live if you're thinking about raising a family here, retiring or opening a new business. The citizens here are always friendly and they're always welcoming toward the ones that want to join this wonderful community.
