I'd rather be in Stockton. Much of the Sacramento area is in a flood plain, flanked by the Sacramento River and American River.
(Guess where I lived a few years ago?)
Sounds like about 9 years ago maybe. Now, business is booming, rents and housing prices are up (though still only about a third of the Bay Area). I live in the burbs outside of Sac, and it's nice here. Of course there are bad parts of town, what city doesn't have them? Overall much better than the Bay Area where I moved from 15 years ago. But keep telling people it's hell here, before they all move here.
The prices will skyrocket & the pressure on property taxes to build more schools will come very quickly.
I lived north & east of Sacto 1993 to 2004.
The influx of Liberals into the historic Gold Country wasn’t pleasant at all. They wanted curbs/gutters/street lights/, etc on rural roads in Nevada County where I had 5 acres.
The only good think was that when I left, I sold for alot more than what I paid for the property. However, I had spent 2 1/2 YEARS cutting down dead & fallen trees with my chain saw. Wore out 7 chains that cannot be sharpened any further. I still have them-—as souvenirs.
Now, in Grass Valley & Nevada City, the panhandlers, homeless, and druggies are rampant. Old friends there tell me they cannot even go out for pizza at night because of the riff-raff all over he place. Taxes are going up & up & the Liberals are trying to ‘house all those homeless. The more housing they offer, the more come. Alot like feeding feral cats.
SHE asked HER wife.....
They will fit right in with all the other freaks there.
Good luck with the crime, ‘ladies’.
That is why all the counties along the I-80 corridor from Frisco to Sacto have gone from red to blue.
Like a freaking cancer.
I liken them to the Borg.
They can stay out of Arizona, too.
