The population of Granite Bay is about 20,000 and it’s only 21.6 square miles. Homes in Granite Bay range from multi-million dollar mansions to small bungalows located on acreage. As Roseville grew in the past couple of decades, Granite Bay also grew and many new home sub-divisions were built, some around man-made lakes. Granite Bay is home to Bayside Church – one the largest and fastest growing Christian churches in the state.

The primary shopping in Granite Bay is centered near the intersection of Douglas Blvd. and Sierra College Blvd. Quarry Ponds is a recent addition to the shopping mix, and although on the small side, is a popular shopping and dining destination along Douglas Blvd.
