Sun Garden Acres Fresno, CA

A relaxed environment next door to Fresno State.

College Affordable Schools

Sun Garden Acres is a small neighborhood just off the Sierra Freeway on the south side of Fresno State. The close proximity to campus, combined with the affordable rental rates for houses and apartments, makes it an excellent location for college students; however, the community is almost entirely residential and free of many college-town trappings, resulting in a fairly quiet suburban environment that may appeal to anyone seeking a low-key atmosphere. Several public parks are easily accessible in the surrounding area, and Vinland Elementary School’s position on the southeast side of Sun Garden Acres is just a short walk away for the neighborhood’s school-age children.

Rent Trends

As of June 2026, the average apartment rent in Sun Garden Acres is $889 for one bedroom, and $1,104 for two bedrooms. Apartment rent in Sun Garden Acres has increased by 2.2% in the past year.
