Everyone here is from California...lots of rich retirees and poor trailer trash. Decent climate, but very dry and brown. Below average wages, but high cost of living...starter homes will run you close to 400k. Very tight job market, few high paying jobs. Near Lake Tahoe. Slightly above average crime rate. Not much of a community feeling here. People are either just barely scraping by or live in high-end gated neighborhoods. Very little in the way of cultural attractions, shopping is ok but not great. In many ways an overgrown hick town. Has plenty of nice areas but seems to always be a little rough around the edges.
