Antioch sits on the scenic San Joaquin Delta and offers affordable, riverfront living with marinas, trails, farmers’ markets, and a growing dining scene—ideal for multi-week stays when you want outdoor recreation and relaxed evenings off-duty.
Big-city options are close enough for weekend escapes: Oakland and the East Bay are about 30–45 minutes away, and Sacramento is roughly an hour, giving you museums, nightlife and larger airports within easy reach.
