      The most welcoming, clean, and safe city I have ever lived in! As a child I would often visit Roseville with my aunt to go shopping at the Galleria mall and always said: "someday I am going to live there and raise a family." I now live here and work for the school district and could not be happier with where I reside. The city is continuously growing but the resources are not limited, they have great schools, tons of shopping, and social events for families.

      Have lived in Roseville for 26 years and watched it blossom! Roseville has everything you need to live here. The only issue I have with Roseville is the available parking compared to the number of people living here. Roseville is very safe, police response time is very good .
      Roseville is such a fantastic city to live in! It is perfect for people who love being outside, and for those who love helping out the environment. The Martha Riley Library in Roseville really emphasizes this with an entire exhibit dedicated to the harmful effects of pollution and garbage has on Earth, and how to conserve resources in your own way.
