Sacramento is great in the educating our children. The school system has really took the extra step to develope a stronger relationship between teacher.students and their parents. Reaching out to every family is such a important factor in a childs education.By home visits a teacher seems to gain a much stronger insight on the life styles of their students.Teachers also improved greatly on their communication skills. The time spent in the classroom has become less stressful for both students and teachers. This allows our children to focus on their schoolwork and allowing them to excel in every subject. Our children are now on their way to becoming productive members in society.
As for change in Sacramento definitely the manor in which the homeless people are treated. I can not deny dealing with them is quite a handful at times.I also know that not every homeless person is like that.
Believe this or not;
I am a woman...
I am single ....
I am homeless....
I am pleading for CHANGE!

Sacramento is a fantastic place to call home. Positioned perfectly in Northern California, we are a short drive away from the mountains, the ocean, and even the desert!
If you are an outdoorsy individual, Sacramento would be a great place for you to live. The greater Sacramento area is sprawling with bike trails, hiking routes, lakes and rivers. If you want a more low-key outing, there are plenty of restaurants, stores and recreational spots to check out. Go to the drive-in movies, practice your golfing and bowling skills, visit a museum, or shop till you drop. The eateries in Sacramento are unparalleled. They don't call us the Farm-to-fork Capitol for nothing!
Sacramento's historical victorian architecture can still be seen in the neighborhoods of Midtown and East Sacramento. Exploring the beautiful homes is an activity on its own.
If you can handle the heat and the traffic in Sacramento, you will be gifted with friendly faces and endless opportunity!

There is so much I love about Sacramento! It is such a walkable city, where you can stumble upon so many great restaurants, bars, parks, concerts, etc. Coming from the east coast a few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised by the beautiful architecture throughout, and there is just much more history and charm than you typically encounter in other California cities. Definitely plan on building a life in this city.
