City College Light Rail

Without the Sacramento RT system, I’d be a lot poorer than I am now. The student RT pass stickers are provided for free by the school if you’re under financial aid, which means you get a whole semester of free bus and train rides.
That being said, this light rail stop is great because it stops right in front of school and in my experience, the trains are usually always on time. There’s two trains that go different routes: Downtown or Consumnes River College, which provides students a great way to get around and about. Yes I also admit it’s kinda scary taking the light rail at night here, but it’s safe nonetheless.

For 6 years, as an active Sacramento City College student, this City College RT Light Rail Station is a great light rail station where Sacramento residents including students from SCC are using it to transport to Downtown or Arden/​Arcade neighborhood including traveling southwards to South Sacramento or the new Consumes River College which it will opens a new RT station soon.
This station’s atmosphere is very well and peaceful although it needs to add more security for this station to prevent crime and theft which the transit riders needed the most to keep it safe and reliable.
For the students of SCC and CRC which it’s part of the Los Rios College, you can get a RT transit sticker for the whole semester if you’ve enrolled half time or full time. The cost of the RT transit sticker is reasonable, yet it’s affordable to use the light rail and transit bus easier without paying one additional daily or monthly transit ticket or pass.
In the end, the City College Light Rail is the greatest, and better RT light rail station in the Sacramento RT region. It’s defiantly worth the ride!

If you are a sacramento city college student, you pay a maximum of $ 15 for a whole sememster worth of RT pass. That means with one sticker that lasts on your ID for about five or six months (1^st of August to 31^st of December, and January 1^st to May 31^st), you’ll ride as many light rails and buses as you wish. That said, if you are a dainty little woman like me, you might often find yourself feeling a little uneasy taking the light rail or the bus at night alone. Yet, that’s not the case here. I always feel safe here. There is a screen that shows you the train schedule, there is some lighting here, there is plenty of seats for all, etc. The only problem is that there isn’t enough shades for the rainy season, or even to protect you from the sun. Other than that, if you’re going to school, what’s greater than buses and light rails dropping you right in front of the school entrance?

Very Nice Light Rail Station
SITREP
When I get down to visit the City College Campus, this Light Rail station is truly one of the better ones — in terms of security, cleaniliness and local neighborhood environment.
SETUP
Along the Meadowview BLUE LINE of Light Rail, during the day the frequency of trains is only about 15 minutes apart. After 7pm, it runs about every 30 minutes until midnight.
I wish there was a more visible security presence that late close to midnight, but I have not seen any — so 1 start deduction.
THE LOWDOWN
Overall, one of the better RT Stations.

Can not beat light rail only 2.50 each way, WAY CHEAPER then a cab into midtown.
Trains are about 15 mins apart going towards downtown! And this is one of the lines they just announced will go till 12:30am which is great for getting home from the bars!
Great Light Rail Station to live next too, as it always is running!
Also if you are taking amtrak be sure to ask for a transit transfer, lets you ride for free.
