Today, we're going to share a few reasons why people really enjoy living in the Roseville and Sacramento region. We've put together a list of the top 4 reasons why our area is a great place to live! Let's dive right in:

1. Location: In one direction, we are only 2 hours from Lake Tahoe. In the other direction, we are only 2 hours from San Francisco! 

• Tahoe is one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. Located high in the Sierra Mountains, the Lake Tahoe area has world-class skiing, camping, fishing, boating, and sailing, among many other activities. 
• San Francisco: If you go the other direction, you can expose yourself to the cultural vibrancy of the Bay Area. Drive across the beautiful Golden Gate Bridge and experience the many cultural and historical landmarks this great city has to offer! 

2. Recreation: Within a 30-minute drive from the Roseville/Sacramento area, there are numerous recreation options. 

• Folsom Lake is within 10 minutes of our office. It's a great place to fish, water-ski, sail, or just enjoy the many trails around the lake.
• American River Bike Trail features over 30 miles of bike trails that run from Folsom Lake to Old Town Sacramento. It runs along the American River, so you can enjoy incredible views and wildlife on your journey.
• Sacramento River is a great place to enjoy boating, fishing, or spending an evening at one of the many restaurants overlooking the scenery of the river. Mountain and road cycling are also available. 

3. History and Culture: There's no shortage of culture and history in the area!

• The Gold Rush of 1849 started right here in the Sacramento area, and it has left behind many old mining towns in its wake. Some of these mining towns have sprouted up into major cities, such as Folsom, Sacramento, and Auburn. Many of these areas have original boardwalks you can walk along and see some of the original structures that were built in the gold rush days. 
• The Transcontinental Railroad started here in Sacramento, not in San Francisco as most people think.
• Arts: We have the Crocker Art Museum, the Railroad Museum, the Governor's Mansion, the Capitol Building, as well as a wide assortment of art from the local area. 
• Shopping: The Roseville Galleria Mall is the premier shopping center in the region, and just across the street you can find the Fountain Square, a very attractive shopping mall with many interesting things to see.

4. Overall Quality of Life: People love to work and play here!

• Affordability: Living in this wonderful area is completely affordable, especially when compared with the nearby Bay Area. You can get a nice size home, on a nice lot, with many features and amenities, and you don't have to deal with the traffic congestion you'll find in metropolitan areas.
• Quality education: You'll find some of the best high schools in the state of California in Placer County.
