The nighttime economy team recently completed an assessment of Sacramento's nightlife economy. The assessment is an in-depth analysis of Sacramento's social economy, identifying strengths, challenges, and opportunities. The assessment also included a Storefront Business Analysis, comparing two social districts and the mix of uses, occupancy, revenue, employment, and variations by those with alcohol and entertainment after midnight. The Office of Nighttime Economy uses its findings and recommendations to identify priorities to develop and implement a strategic plan for a safe, vibrant, well-managed social economy.

On Nov. 29, 2023, the Sacramento Sociable City Summit was held to gather community stakeholders who were integral in providing information that helped inform the assessment, review the report findings, and discuss the next steps toward plan implementation.

Summit highlights include:

  • It marked the 27th meeting, the 17th on-site, to identify strengths, challenges, and action change.
  • 35 community members participated from a cross-section, including local business ownership and management, PBIDs, law enforcement, economic development, transportation, code compliance, and more.
