36-575: Parkway–South Sacramento is a former census-designated place (CDP) in Sacramento County , California , United States. It is part of the Sacramento – Arden-Arcade – Roseville Metropolitan Statistical Area . The area shares three boundaries with the City of Sacramento . The population was 36,468 at the 2000 census. The CDP was abolished before the 2010 census. For that census,

72-424: A CDP name "be one that is recognized and used in daily communication by the residents of the community" (not "a name developed solely for planning or other purposes") and recommend that a CDP's boundaries be mapped based on the geographic extent associated with inhabitants' regular use of the named place. There is no provision, however, that this name recognition be unanimous for all residents, or that all residents use

108-519: A female householder with no husband present, and 26.7% were non-families. 20.8% of all households were made up of individuals, and 7.3% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 3.22 and the average family size was 3.74. In the CDP, the population was spread out, with 35.5% under the age of 18, 11.0% from 18 to 24, 27.9% from 25 to 44, 15.8% from 45 to 64, and 9.7% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age

144-461: A population of at least 10,000. For the 1970 Census , the population threshold for "unincorporated places" in urbanized areas was reduced to 5,000. For the 1980 Census , the designation was changed to "census designated places" and the designation was made available for places inside urbanized areas in New England. For the 1990 Census , the population threshold for CDPs in urbanized areas

180-550: Is Republican Brian Jones of Santee . Each state senator represents a population roughly equivalent to the State of Delaware . As a result of Proposition 140 in 1990 and Proposition 28 in 2012, members elected to the legislature prior to 2012 are restricted by term limits to two four-year terms (eight years), while those elected in or after 2012 are allowed to serve 12 years in the legislature in any combination of four-year state senate or two-year state assembly terms. Members of

216-777: Is the upper house of the California State Legislature , the lower house being the California State Assembly . The state senate convenes, along with the state assembly, at the California State Capitol in Sacramento . Due to a combination of the state's large population and a legislature that has not been expanded since the ratification of the 1879 constitution , the State Senate has the largest population per state senator ratio of any state legislative house. In

252-654: The 1890 Census , in which the Census mixed unincorporated places with incorporated places in its products with "town" or "village" as its label. This made it confusing to determine which of the "towns" were or were not incorporated. The 1900 through 1930 Censuses did not report data for unincorporated places. For the 1940 Census , the Census Bureau compiled a separate report of unofficial, unincorporated communities of 500 or more people. The Census Bureau officially defined this category as "unincorporated places" in

288-461: The 1950 Census and used that term through the 1970 Census. For the 1950 Census, these types of places were identified only outside " urbanized areas ". In 1960 , the Census Bureau also identified unincorporated places inside urbanized areas (except in New England , whose political geography is based on the New England town , and is distinctly different from other areas of the U.S.), but with

324-521: The House of Representatives , and more than that of five entire U.S. states. In the current legislative session, the Democratic Party holds 31 out of the 40 seats, which constitutes a 78% majority—well over the two-thirds supermajority threshold of 27. The 1849 constitution of California provided that the "number of Senators shall not be less than one third, nor more than one half of that of

360-505: The United States Census Bureau , the CDP had a total area of 4.8 square miles (12.5 km), all of it land. As of the census of 2000, there were 36,468 people, 11,197 households, and 8,207 families residing in the CDP. The population density was 7,534.1 inhabitants per square mile (2,908.9/km). There were 11,779 housing units at an average density of 2,433.5 per square mile (939.6/km). The racial makeup of

396-564: The United States House of Representatives , California is apportioned 52 U.S. representatives, each representing approximately 750,564 people, while in the California State Senate, each of the 40 state senators represents approximately 931,349 people; almost exactly the population of the entire state of Delaware . This means that California state senators each represent more people than California's members of

432-607: The United States House of Representatives , Parkway–South Sacramento is in California's 6th congressional district , represented by Democrat Ami Bera . Census-designated place CDPs have been used in each decennial census since 1980 as the counterparts of incorporated places , such as self-governing cities , towns , and villages , for the purposes of gathering and correlating statistical data. CDPs are populated areas that generally include one officially designated but currently unincorporated community, for which

468-528: The poverty line , including 40.3% of those under age 18 and 7.2% of those age 65 or over. In the California State Senate , Parkway–South Sacramento is in the 6th Senate District , represented by Republican Roger Niello . In the California State Assembly , it is split between the 7th Assembly District , represented by Republican Josh Hoover and the 9th Assembly District , represented by Republican Heath Flora . In

504-407: The "Little Federal Model" by which Assembly seats were drawn according to population and senate seats were drawn according to county lines. The guidelines were that no senate district would include more than three counties and none would include less than one complete county. This led to the situation of a populous county such as Los Angeles County (1960 population of 6 million) being accorded

540-464: The CDP is named, plus surrounding inhabited countryside of varying dimensions and, occasionally, other, smaller unincorporated communities as well. CDPs include small rural communities, edge cities , colonias located along the Mexico–United States border , and unincorporated resort and retirement communities and their environs. The boundaries of any CDP may change from decade to decade, and

576-406: The CDP was 38.10% White , 16.64% African American , 1.54% Native American , 17.38% Asian , 0.64% Pacific Islander , 18.02% from other races , and 7.67% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 34.01% of the population. There were 11,197 households, out of which 42.2% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 42.4% were married couples living together, 22.8% had

612-443: The Census Bureau considers some towns in New England states, New Jersey and New York as well as townships in some other states as MCDs, even though they are incorporated municipalities in those states. In such states, CDPs may be defined within such towns or spanning the boundaries of multiple towns. There are a number of reasons for the CDP designation: California State Senate Minority The California State Senate

648-485: The Census Bureau may de-establish a CDP after a period of study, then re-establish it some decades later. Most unincorporated areas within the United States are not and have not been included in any CDP. The boundaries of a CDP have no legal status and may not always correspond with the local understanding of the area or community with the same name. However, criteria established for the 2010 census require that

684-490: The area was divided into the CDPs of Fruitridge Pocket , Lemon Hill and Parkway . The urban sprawl of South Sacramento began with the routing of former U.S. Route 99 (now Stockton Boulevard) through the area. Stockton and Franklin boulevards extend southerly from Downtown Sacramento , and were used from the earliest days of the "gold mining" era for land routes to Stockton —as well as to travel to farming areas—long before

720-484: The boundaries for CDPs. The PSAP was to be offered to county and municipal planning agencies during 2008. The boundaries of such places may be defined in cooperation with local or tribal officials, but are not fixed, and do not affect the status of local government or incorporation; the territories thus defined are strictly statistical entities. CDP boundaries may change from one census to the next to reflect changes in settlement patterns. Further, as statistical entities,

756-419: The boundaries of the CDP may not correspond with local understanding of the area with the same name. Recognized communities may be divided into two or more CDPs while on the other hand, two or more communities may be combined into one CDP. A CDP may also cover the unincorporated part of a named community, where the rest lies within an incorporated place. By defining an area as a CDP, that locality then appears in

792-461: The center, is used by the presiding officer (acting in place of the pro tem) and is rarely sat in as the president is expected to stand. There are four other chairs flanking the dais used by the highest non-member officials attending the senate, a foreign dignitary or state officer for example. Each of the 40 senators is provided a desk, microphone and two chairs, one for the senator, another for guests or legislative aides. Almost every decorating element

828-588: The community for which the CDP is named for services provided therein. There is no mandatory correlation between CDP names or boundaries and those established for other human purposes, such as post office names or zones, political precincts, or school districts. The Census Bureau states that census-designated places are not considered incorporated places and that it includes only census-designated places in its city population list for Hawaii because that state has no incorporated cities. In addition, census city lists from 2007 included Arlington County, Virginia 's CDP in

864-401: The enactment of the 1879 constitution. In 1962, voters were asked via initiative California Proposition 23 whether to expand the state senate by 10 seats, thereby increasing the size of the body to 50 seats, and to abandon the little federal model. This proposition was rejected by the voters 46.65% - 53.35% (2,181,758 - 2,495,440). The lieutenant governor is the ex officio president of

900-556: The list with the incorporated places, but since 2010, only the Urban Honolulu CDP, Hawaii, representing the historic core of Honolulu, Hawaii , is shown in the city and town estimates. The Census Bureau reported data for some unincorporated places as early as the first census in 1790 (for example, Louisville, Kentucky , which was not legally incorporated in Kentucky until 1828), though usage continued to develop through

936-739: The members of the Assembly..." The 1849 constitution also provided that senators served two-year terms and were to be elected bienally, with the total number of senators being divided into two classes so that one half of the senators would be elected annually. Following the ratification of the 1879 constitution of California, the constitution prescribed that the senate is composed of 40 senators and that all senators must have resided within California for three years and their district for one year. Such districts were to be "as nearly equal in population as may be, and composed of contiguous territory". There

972-594: The nearby Lindale and Florin areas. Rapid growth occurred in the early 1960s as the Florin Mall was built in South Sacramento as well as additions to the Lindale area, tapering off in the late '60s to early '70s. Parkway–South Sacramento is located at 38°30′42″N 121°27′8″W  /  38.51167°N 121.45222°W  / 38.51167; -121.45222 (38.511657, -121.452288). According to

The lower tier dais runs across the entire chamber, there are several chairs and computers used by the senate officers, the most prominent seat is reserved for the secretary who calls the roll. The higher tier is smaller, with three chairs, the two largest and most ornate chairs are used by the president pro tempore (right chair) and the lieutenant governor (left chair). The third and smallest chair, placed in

1044-688: The route was designated a U.S. highway. The next transportation growth was the Southern Pacific Railroad and then several years after, the Western Pacific Railroad , both of which railroad tracks in neighboring Florin . During the 1940s, steady growth of residential areas was occurring in neighboring areas of South Sacramento. During the 1950s additional shopping centers were developed on or near Stockton Boulevard and Florin Road, and new residential areas developed in

1080-457: The same category of census data as incorporated places. This distinguishes CDPs from other census classifications, such as minor civil divisions (MCDs), which are in a separate category. The population and demographics of the CDP are included in the data of county subdivisions containing the CDP. Generally, a CDP shall not be defined within the boundaries of what the Census Bureau regards to be an incorporated city, village or borough. However,

1116-547: The same number of state senators (one) as less populous counties such as Alpine County (1960 pop. 397). The senate districts remained unaltered from 1933 to 1967, regardless of the changes in the population distribution. In Reynolds v. Sims , the United States Supreme Court compelled all states to draw up districts with equal population. As such, boundaries were changed to comply with the ruling. The California State Senate has never been expanded since

1152-435: The senate, and may only cast a vote to break a tie. The president pro tempore is elected by the majority party caucus, followed by confirmation of the full senate. Other leaders, such as the majority and minority leaders , are elected by their respective party caucuses according to each party's strength in the chamber. As of 2024, the president pro tempore is Democrat Mike McGuire of Geyserville . The minority leader

1188-516: The state senate serve four-year terms. Every two years, half of the senate's 40 seats are subject to election. This is in contrast to the state assembly, in which all 80 seats in the assembly are subject to election every two years. The red tones of the California State Senate chamber are based on the British House of Lords , which is outfitted in a similar color. The dais rests along a wall shaped like an "E", with its central projection housing

The median income for a household in the CDP was $ 31,194, and the median income for a family was $ 32,594. Males had a median income of $ 28,859 versus $ 25,107 for females. The per capita income for the CDP was $ 12,702. About 23.2% of families and 28.6% of the population were below

1260-481: Was reduced to 2,500. From 1950 through 1990, the Census Bureau specified other population requirements for unincorporated places or CDPs in Alaska , Puerto Rico , island areas, and Native American reservations . Minimum population criteria for CDPs were dropped with the 2000 Census . The Census Bureau's Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP) allows designated participants to review and suggest modifications to

1296-506: Was to be one senate district for each senator. Such districts were also required to preserve political boundaries: "In the formation of such districts, no county, or city and county, shall be divided, unless it contain a sufficient population within itself to form two or more districts; nor shall a part of any county, or of any city and county, be united with any other county, or city and county, in forming any district." Between 1933 and 1967, state legislative districts were drawn according to
