Town in California
Current Resident: It's an incredible little valley town in between the White Mountains and Eastern Sierras... So the views are BEYOND incredible! We have access to some of the greatest mountains in the United States, including Mt. Whitney. The town itself is small but clean and affordable. The only thing lacking is a public pool for hot summer days!... Read 85 reviews

Neighborhood in Folsom, CA
Current Resident: We moved from the Bay Area and we were so surprised by how incredibly nice everybody is here! Strangers greet you and talk to you like old friends. At first we were weirded out bc we’re definitely not used to that - but now I can’t imagine a better environment to raise my kids in. Neighbors are down to earth. They’re the ones that will invite you over for a backyard beer and proactively introduce their kids to yours so that you feel at home. We were so worried about the kids making friends in a new town but it feels like the kids here are raised to welcome new kids - and we are loving it. No regrets whatsoever. We’re home!...

Alum: Work Culture: Priory emphasizes balance. The people within this community care about your wellbeing and are more focused on creating great people than producing more robots who fuel Silicon Valley's toxic work culture. But, don't get me wrong, kids still care about academics a lot. For example, in one class, around fifteen kids got into ivy league schools and six kids got into Stanford. Social Life: Your social life is determined by who you hang out with and the general attitude of your class. Luckily, there were a lot of people in my class who loved to host parties or knew kids from other schools who were throwing parties. During my senior year, there were stretches where my friends and I were going to a party every weekend for eight weeks straight. Dating: Dating at Priory is pretty normal, but due to the small class sizes, it's pretty hard to keep your business private. Sports: Basketball, XC, and Girls Soccer are the strongest programs. Campus: Best in NorCal easily.... Read 72 reviews

Current Resident: Camino is a sleepy, but beautiful, little town in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, about midway between Sacramento and South Lake Tahoe. The area is also know as "Apple Hill" because of the orchards that flourish throughout the town, attracting a steady stream of visitors year-round. The wine scene abounds with unpretentious tasting rooms, and wallet-friendly, but no less enjoyable, picks. There are plenty of recreational opportunities and lots of hiking and biking trails. Not a lot of night life (any at all, really), but being an hour from both Sac & SLT means you'll still be able to catch some great shows and party down past dark.... Read 5 reviews

Niche User: There is a lot of farm land near this area. Elkhorn road separates the residence are and the farm land. Which means it can get really windy because the area is open. In the summer, it's a good thing so that when the temperature gets to 90 degrees it wont't be too hot because of the wind. I like this area better than where we used to live before. It was really crowded and noisy because of the elementary school. This area much better. It's more open and streets are wide too. It's peaceful.... Read 8 reviews

Current Resident: The Imperial Valley is home to a nice little town called Imperial. As a current resident, I would say that it's a nice town to raise a family. The locals are very nice and it is essentially the case that everyone knows everyone. Get-togethers like our MidWinter Fair and our Farmer's market are some of my favorite events they hold and time of the year. It does seem small but sometimes it's nice. My only true complaint is how close-minded people can be. The town is more on the conservative which can be hard to deal with and a big change can effect everyone. The way someone dresses or acts outside the normal standards are usually judged. I sometimes fear being judged but once you get past that, the town is very nice. Most of my family lives in Imperial or nearby which shows how much the town is family-oriented. Overall, if someone was deciding to move here, I would definitely support their decision....

Alum: I really enjoyed La Salle's wide breadth of activities, especially their clubs, and felt like there was always a place for someone to find their niche. The teachers can be hit or miss sometimes and can really make or break a class, especially at the AP level. I had some really amazing teachers that helped shape who I am today, but also some really bad ones. The overall spirit of La Salle is extremely inclusive and their service aspect is quite special and unique compared to that of other schools. Socially, the school does tend to attract people clumping together in groups and cliques like any other high school.... Read 118 reviews
