How these numbers are made

Source: City of Sacramento Building Division, issued building permits (ArcGIS: BldgPermitIssued_Archive and BldgPermitIssued_CurrentYear), read 18 Oct 2026. We count permits issued October 2024 through September 2026; denied and withdrawn permits are left out.

Building permits the City of Sacramento issues inside city limits. Unincorporated Sacramento County (Arden-Arcade, Carmichael, Fair Oaks and similar places) has its own county permit office and its own pages on this site; Elk Grove, Citrus Heights, Folsom and Rancho Cordova run their own permit offices too. None of those are in this file.

  • These pages count and sort permits. The contractor table counts permits filed per firm; it does not rate, rank or compare their work.
  • The file gives each permit's current status (finaled, issued, expired) but not the date it finaled, so we show how many permits finish but not how long they take.
  • The value is the job valuation on the permit, as filed with the city.
  • Most home permits are online e-permits that the file files under one type (Web-Minor); we sort them into roofing, HVAC, plumbing, electrical and solar from the e-permit's own wording.
  • Withdrawn, void and revoked permits are not counted.

Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits. Nobody paid to be on this page and nobody can. Sources and definitions →
