Shingle Springs/Latrobe Califoria - 3/15/2008

Shingle Springs is a wonderful rural area to live. However, the immediate area is booming and threatening space and a rural life style. The winters are mild and great. The summers are long, dry, and very hot. The cost of living is high with most homes (ranchetts) running from $850,000 to $1.4 million. The schools are great.[read more...]

It's beautiful here, but the summers are too hot f - 2/6/2008

Last summer we had more than a week of triple digits and we just can't play outside when it's that hot. But it's quiet and rural. If it weren't for the too hot too long summers, we'd still have a problem with cold winters (mild, by most standards) we're getting a little creaky and would like milder seasons. Soooo we're looking at other places to live.[read more...]

all around pretty good place to live - 1/29/2006

I have been here 25 years. this town had no stop lights when we first moved here. now there's 6. meaning the population is booming. positives are that you have rural living without being to far from what you need. plus Sacramento is about 30 miles away. tahoe is 70 miles. And the weather is very good. we get a few days of fog. long dry summers. Low humidity. cost of living is high, as is everywhere in california. Polution is bad in summer. Good place to raise kids. lots of employment opporunities.[read more...]
