Fair Oaks is a great city! It includes many different festivities and activities, within an overall great neighborhood. It's close to many different public schools, parks, and restaurants. There is plenty of outdoor activities with being very close to the river and bike trails.
I live here now after 25 years in Los Angeles this is just what i needed, has a small town feel and the home I have purchased was built in 1939 with an amazing Art-Deco river rock front I fell in love with the moment i saw it. Unfortunately IT'S ALSO HAUNTED! However I love the community here and we all look out for one another. It's very warm in the summer as my AC bill is about 350 bucks a month during the summer, so keep that in mind. Very chilly in the winter. Has everything close enough. I do miss LA's farmers market though. We need something like that around here big time. Chicken festival goes right by the house so it's fun. You get used to roosters crowing at 4:am, takes a while though. Very happy here.
Fair Oaks has a charm to it. You can enjoy many of the local businesses and take a walk near the river, experiencing the best of both worlds. There is never a lack of things to do, including parades, shopping, going to restaurants (especially The Sunflower Drive In Café), and enjoying the wildlife. It's not a day in Fair Oaks Village without the sights and sounds of the local chickens!
