Lewis Apartments Opens 208-Unit Independence Community in West Sacramento
WEST SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA, OCTOBER 29, 2026 — Lewis Apartments announced the opening of Independence in West Sacramento, a gated community of 208 townhome-style rental homes. The leasing office and model homes opened to the public on October 24, with daily hours from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The community is located in West Sacramento's Southport/Bridgeway Island area, directly across the Sacramento River from downtown Sacramento. According to the company, the development targets renters seeking single-family home features without homeownership responsibilities.
The homes feature 2 and 3 bedrooms, ranging from approximately 1,176 to 1,722 square feet. Each unit includes private entrances, direct-access 1 or 2 car garages, and private outdoor living spaces.
Interior features include quartz countertops with full-height backsplashes, stainless-steel ENERGY STAR appliances, induction ranges, French-door refrigerators, wood-style plank flooring, in-home washers and dryers, walk-in closets and smart-home technology. Garages offer EV-charging capabilities, with select homes providing additional garage storage.
Community amenities include a heated pool and spa with shaded cabanas, a 24-hour fitness center, specialty fitness studio, pickleball courts, outdoor barbecue areas, fire table, dog park, dog spa, play area, package lockers and a Borrow-a-Bike program.
The location provides access to Downtown Sacramento, the State Capitol, Golden 1 Center, Old Sacramento Waterfront, Sutter Health Park and major employment and healthcare centers. The community also connects to I-80, I-5 and Highway 50.
This marks Lewis Apartments' second Independence community in Northern California, following Independence in Dixon, which opened in 2025. The company plans to expand the Independence concept to additional Northern California markets, with future communities planned in Folsom, Vacaville, Fairfield, Newark and other locations.
"The success of Independence in Dixon showed us there is strong demand for rental homes that offer more space, privacy and the features people value in a home, without giving up the flexibility and convenience of renting," said Randall Lewis of Lewis Group of Companies.
