Good family community - 8/30/2022
We bought our home here 23 years ago. I was pregnant when we moved in and we have raised three children here now all adults. We are close to schools and at the time it was one of the better school districts. My kids are grown so I don't know what it is now. There are plenty of grocery stores to choose from. We are also near Lake Folsom. There are plenty of parks nearby which are all kept up very well. We have a lovely Library. We have all the amenities which most Suburban living offers. We have Costco, Walmart Walgreens Etc all nearby. There are plenty of nice restaurants that we frequent often. i have lived all over this country & i think our weather is great and mild compared to other states. Summers are hot but we have air conditioning and a pool. We could use some more rain. The only problems I find is that the homeless are closing in. But I've seen far worse in other areas of Sacramento County. And unfortunately there are a lot of car break-ins. Sadly criminals are like cancer

Going Downhill - 2/4/2018
When we moved into Citrus Heights 7 years ago, it felt like it was on the upswing and we were comfortable taking daily walks through many neighborhoods. Now, we find petty thefts, car break-ins, and drug paraphernalia (and/or regular trash) on the ground make our walks feel much less safe and pleasant. Homelessness is increasing, and the squeeze of the California real estate/rental market means that the median income of people moving into the city has decreased. When I shop at Sprouts, I'm always wary of being approached in the parking lot by someone looking for a handout. There are no good non-chain restaurants nearby, so we have to go Roseville, Folsom, etc. And the hot weather is terrible, but that's true for the whole Sacramento area.

Citrus Heights is OK - 12/21/2008
We've lived in the area for nearly 15 years. While we used to appreciate the heat of the summer, it seems to be wearing us down. We intend to move to a more moderate climate in the next few years. Spring and Fall are great. Winters are reasonably mild. It's just the summers that are getting to

better than expected - 1/17/2007
Citrus Heights became a city about 8 years ago. I didn't vote for the conversion, but I've enjoyed the benefits. Among other things, the city council and others are creating a real community
