      "They don’t want no more flat landers up here in these parts. So many kids are dying from the drugs & the out of Towner marijuana farmers brought in the cartels & tons of violent crime. The crime rate is one of the highest in the USA. Used to be a special little town until it got watered down by those from outta town."

Walking distance to Scott's Flat Lake which offers a wealth of recreational opportunities, sailing, kayaking, fishing, and watersports. Go hiking or mountain biking right from your back door. Nevada City schools are fantastic and there are always community events."

      "Home construction, landscaping, services, layout and location highly admired. E.g. Historic towns, closeness to education, shopping and medical services. Most lower section homes have views. City services. Underground utilities. True value of the CC&R's can be assessed by careful reading, observation and experience. (Creator of CC&R's no longer lives here or oversees CC&R protections -- from owners of barking dogs, for example.) "

      "Birchville Road is extremely popular for walkers, joggers, and bike riders. This is the best neighborhood on the San Juan Ridge - and closest to Nevada City. The people are great, the area is among the quietest in the county, some very large homes and generally large land parcel zoning contribute to this protected (exclusive) country scene. Homes are rarely for sale on this desireable road, the neighbors just stay and dont want to leave! Crime and other problems (like marijuana culivation) which has become very common elsewhere in Nevada County (especially in the south county, upper San Juan Ridge, Penn Valley, and Cedar Ridge/Rollins areas) just are not problems in the Birchville and French Corral neighborhoods. If you like to garden a real banana belt exists here in the winter due to great air drainage to the nearby canyons. As it is the last high point betwen the two Yuba Canyons, daily dirunal winds keep it cooler in the summer than surrounding outlying areas of Nevada County like Penn Valley, Smartsville, south county, and Lake Wildwood. It is possible to keep tomaotes with limited protection until December many years, and still have a nice summer with days rarely in the 90's. Mountain Bounty Farm has discovered this area the last couple of years and is leasing farm land here instead of expanding in the upper cold San Juan Ridge areas. Their CSA/Farm is impressive to drive past in the summer, a real show! Views to the Sierra crest, coast range, and Sacramento valley are available on the more exclusive properties. Wildlife abounds and the birdwatching is incredible. Bridegport State park, BLM land at the end of Birchville Road, South Yuba State Park, Malakoff Diggins State Park, and Forest Service lands are all in very close reach. "
