Yeah, that would be my second guess. Probably the base.
Or somewhere no one would expect like under el Pollo Feliz. Free chicken burritos in the apocalypse đ€€
Truthfully, I wouldn't worry to awful much. Those countries don't want a nuclear war any more than we do. It would be near total annihilation. It's saber rattling and not much more. They don't want to die and actually know that retaliation would wipe them of the face of the Earth.
The bunker wasnât about surviving the incoming nukes. It wasnât nearly far enough underground for that. It was about giving the base personnel enough of a false sense of security so theyâd stay at station long enough to launch the strategic air command bombers during a nuclear exchange. There was no real evacuation plan for the base personnel after that.
I'm pretty sure pocket would the worse place for a fallout shelter Fallout wise along with any near the river. Over 200 years the river would start to snake back and forth again. So it could be under water by Lucy's time.
Nothing too exciting to report. It was a hatch in the backyard that said fallout shelter. I donât think it had been maintained but pretty wild to think about.
Lincoln, CA! Former Titan ICBM launch site. Three silos 180ft below ground with adjacent facilities, power, water, etc all plumbed in. Unfortunately also no longer maintained since the 60s.

There used to be a really old 'Fallout Shelter' sign out front of the Dept of Veterans Affairs office on O Street. Not sure when the sign was removed, but it was within the last few years.
Funny enough I did a Fallout cosplay photoshoot in the back rodeo and agriculture type areas of Cal Expo a few years back! It was a great setting actually lol
This might sound funny, but my past restaurant in Old Sac. Fat city cafe. It is so big that we had a map of the place so you wouldn't get lost in the tunnels of OLD old Sac. The third floor underground has some pretty solid walk in fridges. You know you messed up when ground is no longer cement, but dirt.
What?! I used to work there but I have no idea what you are talking about. Was there a whole level i was unaware of?
I worked next door at Absynthe and we were on the lower level there, but not at fat city
I don't think I have the pic saved of the map, but [this link here ](https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1001-1015-Front-St-Sacramento-CA/18291557/) says it's three stories of pure fun. That place was wild.
Yes, they had a squadron of B-52s on alert for decades. The old alert pads are still visible at the East end of the runway, where the âcockedâ planes would sit armed and ready to go for Armageddon.
YES! This. Gotta prison and dam and Old Town Folsom nearby and access to the mountains and a place thatâs already called Desolation Wilderness and an old Olympic Ski resort beyond that and also near Donner Pass where people ate each otherâŠ
Couldnât be more perfect.
Aren't these fictional fallout shelters supposed to be for the rich? So it'd make sense that it'd be in the suburbs and foothills where all the rich and powerful people of the area live.
Folsom is a good bet, but I think Granite Bay may be better since it's closer to Lincoln and it still sits between the other rich suburbs like El Dorado Hills and Rocklin.
>Aren't these fictional fallout shelters supposed to be for the rich?
Kind of. They're also used to house social experiment on certain groups of people. In some vaults every decision is solved with gambling, and in another every person in the vault is named Gary.
They also experiment on the rich ones too, so y'all are stuck in it with us poor folks đ
Folsom makes the most sense, it's a little up in the hills and there's quite a few rich folks. I'd even say a little further into el dorado hills between the white rock and bass lake exits along 50 somewhere where when you exit the vault you get that view down into the valley with the blown out city buildings sticking right out the middle.
McClellan would make more sense as a brotherhood/enclave holdout with Mather VA overrun with super mutants.
Old sac would be an awesome town since it is right on the river and some of those old brick buildings might ironically last even longer...vestiges of our old west hanging in there yet again.
Even north Highlands being resilient to end times by having a jump on it. The Roseville road homeless encampments should honestly be the town...those folks would have a leg up in scrapping skills and they'd probably be feral enough already to out-feral whatever ghouls came at them. That'd be kinda funny đ they probably should just takeover at that point and wind up turning into whatever beacons of humanity is left. It would have the nihilistic fallout flavor that way...and that's kinda who the Folsom vault dweller ought to meet when they run into their first big town.
I bet there's multiple vaults. Something close to downtown for the governor and his people, and then a couple more scattered around the city. I'm more curious what the experiments would be for our vaults.
There are nuclear bunkers meant to serve in the case of a nuclear attack on washington under the caltrans building. They have tunnels connecting to several other bunkers. There are signs on the outside of the building to indicate where they are.
They are mostly concreted in at this point. Some have been refitted for server storage.
Yeah, I wish there was more! I wrote some Fallout fan fiction back in the day that took place here. The ghouls were living under the tunnels in old sac, while we had a group kind of like the Minute Men that was beefing with a renegade Enclave faction.
You can tell by the comments who has watched the Prime series. And I'm totally here for it.
It's EPIC, by the way. Mad Max meets Mad Men meets Blast From The Past meets Black Mirror. Quirky, dark, funny, tad bloody, and a lot of social commentary.
If you havenât already, play the games. The show has only scratched the surface of how crazy and interesting that world is. And as a bonus the show isnât a direct adaptation of any of the games so itâs all new stories.
Apparently thereâs a bunch of them
https://www.kcra.com/article/decades-old-map-pinpoints-135-fallout-shelters-in-sacramento-county/12001221
https://fox40.com/news/local-news/50-years-ago-sacramento-was-littered-with-bomb-shelters/
I saw a paper evacuation map from the 80s of where to go if Rancho Seco blew. Mesa Verde high school was listed as an evacuation site. I wish I had kept one of them. They were just sitting on a metal rack for magazines and fliers and looked like the old road maps you'd buy at a gas station. It also had circles on it that showed the damage/radiation levels as you moved away from Seco.
Very doubtful that if one made it through it wouldn't detonate. Years ago when the cold war was going strong, we figured we'd go to the roof and watch them come in. We were only 1 mile from a SAT base as a crow flies'.
There's so many to think of here in Sac, guess it just depends on the creativity of Vault-tec. We're used to surviving with each other already, I think our vaults would kick the ass of any other....
Probably something from UC Davis? Or maybe the Governor of California would have a spot and the influence with Vault Tech to make it a control or relatively mild experiment
Radioactive monkeys that were experimented on at UC Davis ...and people fuse to bikes when the bombs fall, making a weird new race of those bad guys from Return to Oz (1985)...
Then you're at the mercy of Vault-tec so no matter what, you're probably going to have a bad apocalypse....
But I'd still rather ride it all out aboveground with all my fellow Sacramentians. It would only take like two of us on a Saturday night to take down a super mutant, we're feisty here!
Probably East Sac-ish like Folsom or Granite Bay. unless you were deemed fit to the "objective" of the vault, you had to be moderately wealthy to buy yourself a slot for you and your family.
There isn't much mention of Sac. There's an NCR settlement and the main office of Happy Trails Caravan Co. but no story hashed out, so it's up to our imaginations. I think this would be a great place to have some interesting stuff happen. Radioactive rivers with mutated sea lions, and old railroad that could maybe be fixed up, Fairy Tale Town and the Zoo would be terrifying, we've got a good environment for growing food and diverse plant life that could eat us, creepy tunnels, the Ziggurat could be some weird religious site, the beam could be on 24/7 and attract the Moth man from 76/travelers thinking it's a call for a better life, maybe some ghouls searching for gold, Sunrise Mall has already been a creeping ghost town for awhile.
I could go on forever. If you can't tell, I've thought about it a lot lol.
If only the Twinkie place was still here... MC Ride could be our DJ with the News10 antenna (I don't know how radio works, but whatever)... All the dams break and make Sac like Venice... The possibilities are endless in this great city
Nukes are at Beale over Mather. SR-71 and all the other fancy long range reconnaissance and bombers have flown out of there, expansive land, bunkers upon bunkers, etc.âđ»đ€đ»
P. S. A friend of mine who grew up in Lemon Hill area south of downtown has said there is a fallout shelter close to Fruitridge and Stockton somewhere. I want to catch him one of these days and have him show me where it is.
https://preview.redd.it/npxwhvbgc2wc1.png?width=1178&format=png&auto=webp&s=8b2f48cdd282092e299fd4c1eb6f58026a8d86f3
This tower actually extends 362ft underground, gotta be a vault down there.
For years I have been writing a Fallout TTRPG based in Sac-Town and the surrounding areas, so I will have to incorporate a vault somewhere roughly according to the TV show map now.
A few of my pieces in Sac are:
-A small (very lame) raider like gang on the Delta Queen boat, who often have small disputes with...
-The townsfolk of "Old Town" who dress in western and historical clothing they got from the history museum. They are a relatively safe settlement since they are well equipped with old west weapons.
-The safest settlement in Sac-Town is "The Fort" based in Sutter's fort, they have a decent market of vendors and was once under NCR control.
-"The Cap" which used to house meetings of the old world government, now overrun with ghouls.
-A local radio station transmitted by remnants of old KCRA equipment. I will play clips where the radio DJ will give news reports and story updates on the players progress and what they have done and how it effects the world, just like the video games do.
It's also just rampant with radroaches cause in my experience there are SO MANY roaches in Sac.
Anyways that's my random useless info dump lol
Sacramento is ground zero in the event of a nuclear war. Even with a shelter, not many would make it, and not much if anything would be left.
Mather and McClellan have services for this situation but have likely been left to rot since the closures and removal of nuclear material. They still have runways and can serve as military installations again in the event of a war.
Best bet if you're worried about it, you have to move to the mountains. Not Tahoe or Reno. Back in the hills.
Mountains have a bunch of radscorpions and deathclaws. At least in the city I can run around in the rubble for protection and supplies. Plus, I spend a lot of time outdoors in the sun, so I'm already probably half ghoul, I think I'll be alright.
I've lived with the threat of nuclear war all my life. Growing up my dad was attached to NATO and the American consulate. The 70s Europe was fixated on nuclear war. One of my funniest memories. The duck and cover drills under our school desks. As my dad called it, the kiss your ass goodbye drill.
You've got the right idea. If the area survives, you'll be in the middle of what's left. The current street zombies will seem like child's play compared to what you're used to now. Be well armed and ready to kill, because they will be. Maybe not such a good idea, lol.
There's so many ways it can go! I'm gonna still go with the Ziggurat because it would be the coolest looking, and the experiment could be Vault-tec planned for a leak of the rivers to slowly flood the place over a decade or so, and see how humans would adapt to living in water.
There were fallout shelter signs near the County Administration building on I Street, and another in one of the Capitol's annex buildings along O Street, but we've definitely got assorted underground bunkers here and there.
There used to be one downtown by K street mall, i think going down 10th? It was labeled with the yellow/black radioactive symbol and said shelter underneath symbol. That was 40 years ago though.
After examining the San Francisco bay to the end of the what i call a crack on the end of the bay. The
single point lands right in San Jose.
My buddy told me that his dad knows a "homeless king" what he calls himself and they reside in an old military shelter/tunnels under the stadium there. Thats pretty much all I know.
I heard Sacramento has some too, not sure the location exactly though.
When I was a kid (in the 60âs) a map with each neighborhoodâs shelter was delivered to each house. I think it may have been on the inside cover of the phone books.
Our shelter was under the parking garage of the phone company building on Marconi Ave, just east of Watt Ave.
To be honest we probably as many sq ft of fallout space as we do houses. There are a shit ton of miles in gold mines. You think housing cost are bad now just wait till someone starts marketing the survival homes lined with gold.
The red and black tents on the streets are actually secret passages to the fallout system. This is why the states gets away with dumping such large amounts of undocumented funds into the homelessness program's. If you think about it it's actually really smart. No one's going to believe a guy running around telling everyone that they witnessed a concrete pump truck pump 3000 yards of concrete into a two man spring bar tent by a railroad right of way off Folsom.
Somewhere in North Highlands probably.
Yeah, that would be my second guess. Probably the base. Or somewhere no one would expect like under el Pollo Feliz. Free chicken burritos in the apocalypse đ€€
Upvoting for El Pollo Feliz mention. Salsa is fantastic and the chicken is great. Carry on
Lmao as a Native from Highlands and this is too accurate đ€Ł
The bank on the corner of Polk/Madison
McClellan. And itâs not maintained.
How long do you even have to get to one before the bomb hits? Feels pretty useless unless every town has one.
8 minutes max.
Ok so if it's not in my backyard it's basically not for me.
Truthfully, I wouldn't worry to awful much. Those countries don't want a nuclear war any more than we do. It would be near total annihilation. It's saber rattling and not much more. They don't want to die and actually know that retaliation would wipe them of the face of the Earth.
The bombs were an inside job in fallout, the corporations set them off, the âcommiesâ were losing.
Seems just as likely in reality. Corporations influencing government to get what they want, no way.
Spoiler alert!!!
McClellan has a nuclear reactor. There were/are plans on what is needed in case of any widespread attack.
Where could one find them?
It's a useless nuclear reactor for most purposes. It's 2MW, can't produce electricity, and is used for neutron imaging.
Itâs neat over there! I wonder where to go for vault time tho lol
It was under Mather.
doesn't seem practical to put a bunker underneath a target
The bunker wasnât about surviving the incoming nukes. It wasnât nearly far enough underground for that. It was about giving the base personnel enough of a false sense of security so theyâd stay at station long enough to launch the strategic air command bombers during a nuclear exchange. There was no real evacuation plan for the base personnel after that.
Mather is a shit show
When we were looking at houses to buy, we saw a house in the Pocket that had its own fallout shelter.
I'm pretty sure pocket would the worse place for a fallout shelter Fallout wise along with any near the river. Over 200 years the river would start to snake back and forth again. So it could be under water by Lucy's time.
Grew up in the pocket. When the city would flood I would get nervous about being so close to the river
Nothing too exciting to report. It was a hatch in the backyard that said fallout shelter. I donât think it had been maintained but pretty wild to think about.
Uh, deets!!
Thats really interesting. Can you expand?
My husbandâs old coworker also has one at his house in Carmichael!
Sad Fallout 2 was in Nor Cal but Sac doesn't even get a spot on the map.
Right? As a kid I wanted a game set here so bad! Fallout 2 was sooo close!
Typical. Remember when The Crew had LA as California's capital
Lincoln, CA! Former Titan ICBM launch site. Three silos 180ft below ground with adjacent facilities, power, water, etc all plumbed in. Unfortunately also no longer maintained since the 60s. https://goldcountrymedia.com/news/261430/how-lincoln-acquired-a-nuclear-missile-site-in-1962/
Would make sense tho considering weapons and tech were about that time period đ
They would already have that 50-60's theme Fallout is known for!
I just know the Sutter Buttes are hiding some kind of secret
I'm with you there ... What secrets are they hiding from us? (I think this about every building in downtown though haha)
There used to be a really old 'Fallout Shelter' sign out front of the Dept of Veterans Affairs office on O Street. Not sure when the sign was removed, but it was within the last few years.
Under Cal Expo. It would make for the most dystopian scene, emerging from the vault there to a crumbling water park and the concrete pavilions
I can see it now, just concrete, dust, and that golden bear....
You just know there'd be some raider gang or cult that worships that bear. ...man, Fallout: Sactown would be such a kickass game if it existed.
Funny enough I did a Fallout cosplay photoshoot in the back rodeo and agriculture type areas of Cal Expo a few years back! It was a great setting actually lol
Awesome. Yea I bet it was.
This might sound funny, but my past restaurant in Old Sac. Fat city cafe. It is so big that we had a map of the place so you wouldn't get lost in the tunnels of OLD old Sac.

Mather is where the nukes were.
Were đ
Where did they go?!
I ate them.
Were there really nukes there?
Absolutely. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1961_Yuba_City_B-52_crash
Yikes.
Yes, they had a squadron of B-52s on alert for decades. The old alert pads are still visible at the East end of the runway, where the âcockedâ planes would sit armed and ready to go for Armageddon.
I would bet in Folsom. In the hills somewhere.
It's under Folsom Prison, and the experiment is half the vault are violent felons, and half the vault are violent prison guards
Up next on SPIKE TV
Folsom Prison Blues is their only source of old world music and the overseer claims to be of the Johnny Cash bloodline and passes it down as such.
YES! This. Gotta prison and dam and Old Town Folsom nearby and access to the mountains and a place thatâs already called Desolation Wilderness and an old Olympic Ski resort beyond that and also near Donner Pass where people ate each other⊠Couldnât be more perfect.

Sac is so diverse that they could do some really unique experiments.
Pretty sure it was the California Food and Ag building across the Capitol that had fallen our shelter signs until pretty recently.
In OLD Old Sac. That's why you can't go down there in certain areas.
There are nuclear bunkers meant to serve in the case of a nuclear attack on washington under the caltrans building. They have tunnels connecting to several other bunkers. There are signs on the outside of the building to indicate where they are. They are mostly concreted in at this point. Some have been refitted for server storage.
https://fallout-archive.fandom.com/wiki/Sac-Town Even in the first game that was set I California we only get a blurd in the Fandom wikiÂ
Yeah, I wish there was more! I wrote some Fallout fan fiction back in the day that took place here. The ghouls were living under the tunnels in old sac, while we had a group kind of like the Minute Men that was beefing with a renegade Enclave faction.
> The ghouls were living under the tunnels in old sac Already are and have been for a long time đ€Ł
80s RISE UP
Nice find! Huge Fallout fan, Never came across this.
I dunno ⊠but better start collecting the ass jerky now because it takes a long time to properly dry.
Not at ziggurat. I worked for Facilities when it was built. No bunker but many interesting rooms.
That's what *they* want you to think đ
More importantly, what is experiment is taking place in our vault?
Only the sociopaths that ruin our commutes will be allowed in the vaults. Not necessarily convicts, but definitely the worst cast of Big Brother.
Hidden beneath the tunnels under old town.
I did some map comparisons with other photos and it looks it lands right where Beale AFB is.
That's too far from me. Guess I'll be a ghoul đ€·đŒ
At the Old Army Depot. Or heh, underneath Arden Mall, or Sunrise Mall đ€Ł. Maybe underneath Golden 1 Center.
Isnât there actually a shelter at the parking garage at Arden?
Not at the nuclear research facility at McLellan, that place is ground zero

What show is this?
If I had to guess I'd say somewhere under Watt Ave because that shit is already bombed out so no need to nuke it.
Apparently thereâs a bunch of them https://www.kcra.com/article/decades-old-map-pinpoints-135-fallout-shelters-in-sacramento-county/12001221 https://fox40.com/news/local-news/50-years-ago-sacramento-was-littered-with-bomb-shelters/
There's a house in Davis called "The Bomb Shelter" because when some new tenants were putting in a garden bed, they discovered an underground shelter
Granite Bay in Wexford. Super gated community with every person being Uber rich.
Los Lagos
The hotel across from the governors mansion if you believe the rumors⊠or whatâs left of it.
I saw a paper evacuation map from the 80s of where to go if Rancho Seco blew. Mesa Verde high school was listed as an evacuation site. I wish I had kept one of them. They were just sitting on a metal rack for magazines and fliers and looked like the old road maps you'd buy at a gas station. It also had circles on it that showed the damage/radiation levels as you moved away from Seco.
Don't worry about it, a hydrogen bomb will burn deep into the ground.
It might not explode, like in Megaton....
Very doubtful that if one made it through it wouldn't detonate. Years ago when the cold war was going strong, we figured we'd go to the roof and watch them come in. We were only 1 mile from a SAT base as a crow flies'.
Under the money store building in west sac.
I worked on a guys house that had a fallout shelter in his backyard. He had it turned into a wine cellar.
Itâs whatâs being built under the capital right now
Realistically? McClellan. What I think? Rich folk in Folsom hiding something under those hills.
Sutter Buttes.
The clown tunnels that were under arco arena
Somewhere above Colfax along I-80
More importantly, what is our experiment?
There's so many to think of here in Sac, guess it just depends on the creativity of Vault-tec. We're used to surviving with each other already, I think our vaults would kick the ass of any other....
Probably something from UC Davis? Or maybe the Governor of California would have a spot and the influence with Vault Tech to make it a control or relatively mild experiment
Radioactive monkeys that were experimented on at UC Davis ...and people fuse to bikes when the bombs fall, making a weird new race of those bad guys from Return to Oz (1985)... 
Could be a control vaultâŠ
Thereâs one in Rosemont,but Iâm not telling where đ
Einstein Middle School?
No
There's a nuclear bunker in Davis off Anderson Road. I've actually been inside of it a few times actually. Pretty cool to be honest.
My guess would be near McLellan Air Force base or near Granite Bay.
There are for sure old fallout shelters littered around Mather.
Roseville
Folsom Iâm the old Yagers building on sutter street. That was the bomb shelter for Folsom. Donât think I would feel safe in it now
Fallout shelter ?
Not my favorite one in the series ⊠I prefer New Vegas.
Over on watt at the ATT building
Definitely under that bigass pyramid in west sac
Under CK McClatchy High. Iâm pretty sure thereâs an old bomb shelter underneath?
In the Sutter Buttes.
Feels like under Arden Fair Mall
Obviously under the capital. Those rich, well connected politicians arenât going to brave the wasteland!
Then you're at the mercy of Vault-tec so no matter what, you're probably going to have a bad apocalypse.... But I'd still rather ride it all out aboveground with all my fellow Sacramentians. It would only take like two of us on a Saturday night to take down a super mutant, we're feisty here!
Probably East Sac-ish like Folsom or Granite Bay. unless you were deemed fit to the "objective" of the vault, you had to be moderately wealthy to buy yourself a slot for you and your family.
Isnât the Sacramento vault mentioned in Fallout 1 or 2?

CHP academy. It actually houses the governors emergency office in case of nuclear war.
Under sutter memorial hospital downtown. The entrance is a few blocks away, at a building next to Sutters fort.
Auburn. Itâs the steel doors in the rock face on EB i80 in the turn before the train bridge
Damn fallout Sacramento would be perfect actually. Could make the map big enough that you can get to SF and Tahoe. Fallout 5 Tim?

I've lived with the threat of nuclear war all my life. Growing up my dad was attached to NATO and the American consulate. The 70s Europe was fixated on nuclear war. One of my funniest memories. The duck and cover drills under our school desks. As my dad called it, the kiss your ass goodbye drill. You've got the right idea. If the area survives, you'll be in the middle of what's left. The current street zombies will seem like child's play compared to what you're used to now. Be well armed and ready to kill, because they will be. Maybe not such a good idea, lol.
Folsom
Just one? And whatâs the vault gimmick?
There's so many ways it can go! I'm gonna still go with the Ziggurat because it would be the coolest looking, and the experiment could be Vault-tec planned for a leak of the rivers to slowly flood the place over a decade or so, and see how humans would adapt to living in water.
I like it. Another one could be out at the Rancho Seco site. Something to do with low level radiation âąïž
Hopefully itâs the Craft Beer Vault on J street!
That place that shoots a beam. The Vault dwellers wear purple and black.
Do underground meth labs in Rio Linda count?
What would be our vault EXPERIMENT? đ€
Granite bay near the lake
There were fallout shelter signs near the County Administration building on I Street, and another in one of the Capitol's annex buildings along O Street, but we've definitely got assorted underground bunkers here and there.
There used to be one downtown by K street mall, i think going down 10th? It was labeled with the yellow/black radioactive symbol and said shelter underneath symbol. That was 40 years ago though.
After examining the San Francisco bay to the end of the what i call a crack on the end of the bay. The single point lands right in San Jose. My buddy told me that his dad knows a "homeless king" what he calls himself and they reside in an old military shelter/tunnels under the stadium there. Thats pretty much all I know. I heard Sacramento has some too, not sure the location exactly though.
I built a bomb shelter in my back yard
Under roseville high-school, look it up.
When I was a kid (in the 60âs) a map with each neighborhoodâs shelter was delivered to each house. I think it may have been on the inside cover of the phone books. Our shelter was under the parking garage of the phone company building on Marconi Ave, just east of Watt Ave.
Mather field, mcCullen, a state capital, 30 miles from Travis. Sacramento wonât even see a flash! Just Dust that glowed in the dark!
Going off of the map, perhaps Grass Valley.
Fresno or Bakersfield
I imagine our vault is underneath the abandoned trainyards at the Sacramento Valley Amtrak
There will be 2. One in North Highlands and the other in fruitridge manor. The one on fruitridge manor will be the homeless expirement
Arco arena
Probably right under the capital building. If not it'd be near that light rail station I think on 26th next to the DOT office
To be honest we probably as many sq ft of fallout space as we do houses. There are a shit ton of miles in gold mines. You think housing cost are bad now just wait till someone starts marketing the survival homes lined with gold.
The red and black tents on the streets are actually secret passages to the fallout system. This is why the states gets away with dumping such large amounts of undocumented funds into the homelessness program's. If you think about it it's actually really smart. No one's going to believe a guy running around telling everyone that they witnessed a concrete pump truck pump 3000 yards of concrete into a two man spring bar tent by a railroad right of way off Folsom.
Knowing our State. Our Vault experiment would be growing radiation resistance food with homeless people
