Jacoby Creek, located between Arcata Bottoms and Bayside, is a rural and residential Arcata neighborhood with redwood-lined hillsides and open pasture views. Homes range from mid-century ranches to custom builds tucked along winding lanes above the creek corridor. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Jacoby Creek Road and Old Arcata Road junction, where mailboxes, trailheads, and morning traffic set a quiet, working-rural rhythm. Nearby pillars include the Arcata Theatre Lounge, Los Bagels, and Redwood Curtain Brewing Co. Daily life tracks the weather rolling in from Humboldt Bay and the shade of second-growth redwoods. A short drive connects to Arcata’s plaza culture while keeping the soundscape mostly creekwater and wind in the trees.

The RVL zoning district is applied to areas where physical constraints, the protection of natural features, or the preservation of semi-rural character have been identified by the General Plan as important considerations. The RVL zoning district is primarily applied to areas with steep slopes, and where the General Plan intends that the open space character of the City’s hillsides and perimeter lands are to be preserved. Individual homesites are allowed in hillside areas, as long as precautions are taken to prevent the excessive removal of vegetation, and strict grading controls are enforced to prevent erosion (see Chapter 9.52 for hillside development standards). The allowable density is two or fewer primary dwellings per acre. The RVL zoning district is consistent with and implements the Residential - Very Low Density land use classification of the General Plan.
