Established in the mid-1800s by Chinese immigrants who worked for the railroad, Antelope began its humble existence as a bedroom community. The workers thrived and enjoyed their boomtown in an era where neighborhoods were the essence of the community. But never being at the center of commerce, the Antelope railroad workers eventually moved to the next county and helped root Roseville as a viable city.

The Antelope that was left behind eventually became merely a place rather than a community. Tucked away at the northern edge of Sacramento County, Antelope's longest boundary is still against the Placer-Sacramento County line and is nestled against the Southern Pacific Railroad lines just south of the Roseville switching yard.

Antelope, emerged during the late 1980s as a planned community of single-family homes and apartments. Located on the northeastern border of Sacramento County, this 7,000-acre community is conveniently situated near freeways, shopping, neighborhood parks and the Sacramento International Airport. Because the development is relatively new, homes in the area are energy-efficient and neighborhoods are well planned.
