Yuba City Reviews
Rating 3.46 out of 5 168 reviews
I came to the area 5 years ago for a job from a completely different state. Yuba city is just like every other town, and at the same time its own place entirely. It has your standard walmarts, starbucks, and fast food. But it has a cork about it that set it apart. Yuba city has chickens. I don`t means people have chickens. The town has chickens. Chickens roaming around everywhere. Im parking lots, on side walks, in front yards. the story goes that one day a truck hauling chickens was T-boned in an intersection and the chickens escaped. The locals thought the chickens would just die off. But chickens are quite resourceful. They not only survived, they thrived. Now where ever you go in the central valley based town you are never a stones throw away from, you guessed it. A chicken.
I enjoy how close it is, relatively, to larger cities such as Sacramento and San Francisco and to natural sites for hiking. However, the options within Yuba City in terms of restaurants, shopping and entertainment are pretty limited. Roads are either in constant repair or in need of serious repair. Some areas are nice and relatively safe, but overall I would not feel safe alone in many areas.
Yuba City fosters a diverse community with a rich culture. The people are welcoming and the ambiance is magnificent. This small town allows you to build lasting connections with others. Yuba City is a great family-friendly and affordable option as well. It's also close to many larger cities, such as Sacramento and San Francisco, so you can have fun without breaking the budget!
