Review of Eureka, California


Beautiful to visit
Star Rating - 12/17/2010
Beautiful redwood and beaches! You are five hours drive to any big metro-area to any direction. Target and Costco are the big retails in town. There are not a lot of jobs here. Homeless people are part of downtown Eureka and Arcata. Don't move here if you want to raise a normal family with young children. It takes more than a year to get a popular dentist appointment. The wait to see a reputable pediatrician is more than six month and they direct you to the ER if you haven't established a doctor-and-patient relationship. Don't be fooled by the non-profit label, they are out to get your last penny. See my review for Health care.
