All in all Sacramento is not that bad! There are some great pro's about the city. Its located perfectly in the middle of all great things in California.. With a 2hr drive you can go to the mountains(Tahoe), or the city(San Fransisco), or Napa valley, or if you drive 5-6hrs youre in LA... thats the best thing I like about this place. If you like to travel its a great base.
For living I would recommend the outskirts of Sacramento, like Lincoln, Rocklin to live in... the neighborhoods are nicer and more family orientated. In the Sacramento area you have a lot of class diversity. One street over is a bad neighborhood, where one street the other way is a million dollar home neighborhood. So theres a mixture of different classes within the same region. In the outskirts like lincoln, the differences in class are very slim so overall the entire area is nice and safe so you would have to worry about making the wrong turn!
