"It’s quiet safe and a great school district. I enjoy going on walks in my neighborhood. There are plenty of grocery stores to choose from. Something I’ve learned since having kids is the neighborhood I live in specifically gets together for a parade on Fourth of July. Can’t ask for a better community. I don’t plan on moving anytime soon but I love to look and see what’s available in the neighborhood for family and friends. "

"There’s always traffic so you never feel alone. There’s lots of places to eat. Sacramento is a big city so this area wouldn’t be the best place to raise a kid. I like quieter neighborhoods. I do agree that there are a bunch of river access points and parks around here, which is awesome and there are plenty of dog parks."

"The commute is fine, it’s central enough to have fairly quick access to many places in the area. I drive and do not take public transportation, but it seems like there are many bus options nearby. "
