About Colfax, CA – A Growing Sierra Foothills Community

Nestled along Interstate 80 in the beautiful Sierra Nevada foothills, Colfax, CA (ZIP 95713) is a historic gold-rush-era town with a current population of approximately 2,050 residents (2024 estimates). Known as the “Gateway to the Sierra,” Colfax offers small-town charm while being just minutes from larger cities like Auburn and Roseville. The area has seen steady growth as families and businesses move in to enjoy lower costs, scenic views, and easy access to recreation at Rollins Lake, the American River, and Tahoe National Forest.

With new residential developments, rural estate builds, and commercial projects on the rise, property owners in Colfax and nearby communities need experienced excavation contractors who understand local soil conditions, steep terrain, and Placer County permitting requirements.
