Grass Valley, CA

Expensive, high crime, no good jobs. - 12/8/2021
Grass valley has become a sad place to live. I was born and raised here and can no longer afford to raise my small family here. Look up the median annual wage and the median average home price. Currently the average wage is 33k a year and the average home sells for 550k. You can quickly see the problem. you'll find that almost anyone that hasn't retired or dosent live at home still does not work locally. If you want to afford to live here prepare to commute at least to roseville, a 45 minute drive with zero traffic. You might think that crime wouldn't be an issue in such an expensive place to live but you would be wrong. Drug abuse is rampant, especially in the younger crowd. I would say that 1 in 3 people in my age range have a drug addiction. The homeless population is rampant and to fix this issue the county has established several homeless shelters and many resources for homeless. This has had the undesirable effect of bringing even more homeless population to take advantage of our many rehab facilities and shelters. You can expect a minimum of 3 homeless caused wildfires a year and many more with other causes. This community was born of mining and logging heritage, however the industry has all but dried up due to the red tape imposed by the bay area transplant tree hugger types. And with this decline in industry so has the younger generations opportunity for success. If your retired and have at least 500k for a small home this just may be the perfect place for you, as long as you dont mind the rising crime, drugs and homelessness. We are unfortunately forced to leave this beautiful area as we will never have a hope of owning even a small home here.
