Nestled at the base of several mountain ranges on the banks of the Sacramento River, with stunning views of Mt. Lassen and Mt. Shasta, Redding (pop. 100,000) is located in the true northern part of California (being 3 ½ hours north of San Francisco and 1 ½ hours south of the Oregon border). Despite our close proximity to Oregon, Redding is America’s second sunniest city with a very warm and generally dry climate and an abundance of palm trees. Miles and miles of hiking and biking trails abound and there are nearly 50 waterfalls within a short drive from the city. So abundant is outdoor life that a profusion of homes include an RV parking pad and housing costs are among the lowest in California.
