Redding Current Resident: Redding is a beautiful sprawling City with hills and trees and incredible views from just about anywhere because of the terrain. Of the 95,000 residents, I see several trends, one of them being many faith-filled people from many great churches in the area working hard to improve our city, address the many needs, and make positive changes by serving the city in so many ways that I've never seen in any other City and I've lived in multiple States. The other side of the population seems to be less-educated, many of them lifetime residents, a portion of these with addictions, that are very negative about Redding and even manage to complain about those who are doing positive things here. When one church helped the city save the Civic Center as well as five police officers that were being laid off, a small but loud number of locals ranted that a church was taking over the city. It would be really nice if people could simply honor one another and stand together. Our city is worth it!... Read 336 Reviews
