    "Lots of people have dogs and theyโ€™re most always on a leash. We rarely see dogs running around the neighborhood without a leash or collar."
  • Michael
    "Nice area...seasonal...quaint community...good restaurants lots of outdoor activities as well as town events...holiday spirit...up pretty high..foothills...sunsets...snow...lots of clear days....great views...located nicely between Sacramento and Reno,nv."
  • Darcie
    "23 miles to and from work. Very easy commute from where we live. I don't work in the town I live in but the next town over. Easy commute but not a very safe highway. Caltrans it's making it safer by widening the roads."
  • Gwebberarts
    "Living in Grass Valley's woods-y neighborhoods, close to shopping, groceries, farmers market & downtown, with easy highway access!"
  • Darcie
    "iโ€™ve lived in this neighborhood for over 20 years. I was born about an hour from here so this is like coming back home! Everyone is very friendly! since Grass Valley is about 3000 feet in elevation, The snow level is just above us. We might get a few inches of snow every year, but it doesnโ€™t last long. It does get pretty hot in the summertime as high as 105 at times. Itโ€™s actually very beautiful! There are many pine trees, cedars, and oaks in our neighborhood! Also gold country is where we live! So if youโ€™d like to try your hand at gold panning try many of our creeks and rivers! Our county has the most beautiful fairgrounds in California! Many things to do in our town!"
  • Jaelyn Jimenez
    "I would say the Nevada county fair is a pretty unique community event for Grass Valley. Also playing in the snow is always fun every year. "
  • Christine Cook
    "Not a lot of dog parks downtown but miles and miles of hiking trails where owners can bring their dogs as long as they stay on a leash. Most pet owners are very responsible in this community."
  • Christine Cook
    "Itโ€™s a quiet neighborhood with mostly Victorian homes. Itโ€™s near a high school but that doesnโ€™t seem to affect traffic or the peaceful atmosphere. Itโ€™s fairly close to Hwy 49 so thereโ€™s a lot of background noise but one gets used to it pretty quickly. There are several nice parks and trails nearby. Itโ€™s a decent place to raise a family. Itโ€™s also within walking distance to of historic downtown and shopping. "
  • Nv6k4wxyjp
    "We have a vibrant downtown area with community events offered several days a week, many of which are free. Grass Valley residents tend to be creative and artistic. Many residents own local shops to display their wares. "
  • Christina Cox
    "Yes people walk their dogs every day here! There is a nice trail as well as the street. No sidewalks is the only weakness."
  • Trulia User
    "Fireworks, we are all usually very friendly. there's a County Fair most kids go to in the Summer. There have recently been a few pride events, and the toy drive for kids in need drives through the neighborhood."
  • Trulia User

  • Z'henna J.
    "Itโ€™s a great place to raise a family or retire. But if you are a new adult looking for more I HIGHLY recommend you go somewhere more exhilarating. "

  • Dean D.
    "The neighborhoods in this area are really nice for the most part some people have issues but who donโ€™t. Not super dog friendly but enough to take my dogs for a walk"
  • Susie L.

  • LindaB
    "Alta Sierra is one of the nicest and safest communities anywhere in the vicinity. Neighbors are friendly. HOA only costs $40/yr and is a wonderful community organization. Great clubhouse, golf course, restaurants, pizza parlor, auto repair, elementary school. Quiet. Absolutely lovely. Herds of deer roam freely everywhere. Only 3 miles to town. But far enough out of town to really enjoy being in the country. Lots of amenities."
  • Lori g
    "like: Easy walking loops within housing development and access to land trust trails, some level streets"
  • Ehron V.
    "Romain Angels, amazing and interesting characters around here. Very nice people however in a lot of areas thereโ€™s tweaks and sketchy activities. But overall beautiful. "
  • Vanessa M. M.
    "I absolutely love Nevada county I intend to live here my whole life I don't like that is becoming so overpopulated but I enjoy this place if you could truly be in love with a place I'm in love with Nevada county"
  • Colleen L.
    "We all look out for each other and lend a hand when needed. On occasion there will be potlucks or summer barbecues. "
  • Shauntel C.
    "Grass Valley is great, but something strange in a brewing in the air around here. whatever it is it's not good. But schools are great!! There is a lot of homeless and illicit drug use and I'm not talking marijuana either. At first, I thought the people were nice, but I think that's only in Penn Valley. Grass Valley has many younger/middle-age folk that act like they are in high school and are brutal to new comers. That being said, I have met many kind individuals who have been welcoming."
