Lemon Hill numbers

Lemon Hill has about 4,468 households and 15,312 residents. About 60 percent rent, 51 percent have children under 18, and the median age is 29. By the national share, about 1,430 households would have a cat, an estimate from Census and AVMA data and not a count of cats.

From 44th Street to Midway Road

The route leaves on 44th Street, Fruitridge Road and Golden State Highway, then takes 15.7 miles of Interstate 80, 5.3 of US 50 and 4.1 of Highway 113. That is 29.8 miles and about 40 minutes without traffic; the crow-flies distance is 20.6 miles.

Rush hour on Interstate 80 is slower than the free-flow figure, so leave time before the 5:00 PM close of the afternoon window.

What is included

The tower, litter box, blanket and house cat food are included in the nightly price. Medications are given at no extra charge. The cat boarding page has the full list.
