If I were to move to do it all over again and move to Roseville with my young kids, here’s where I would choose, especially if I were looking for more space and a community feel.
Why Choose Roseville
These are some of the reasons I moved to Roseville, but what I would keep choosing it time and time again:
- Highly rated public schools
- Safe, well-maintained neighborhoods
- Countless parks and trails
- Easy access to shopping and dining, with many options
- Proximity to Sacramento, Tahoe, the coast, and so many other fun day trip locations!
If I had to do it all over again, I would give these neighborhoods a second look:
East Roseville. I like this area of Roseville for many reasons, but mostly because of convenience. There are great schools, close to many parks, near the freeway for a quick commute, close to the Galleria, and near Folsom Lake. Not to mention the homes and neighborhoods are mature, have larger lots, and offer a variety of amenities like access to Miner’s Ravine Trail. Search for East Roseville Homes here.
West Park. The Westpark community has newer homes, plentiful parks and community, all while being close to top-rated schools and great local businesses. Definitely check out Westpark if you want a strong family-friendly community and newer homes with modern layouts and energy efficiency. Search for West Park homes here.
Highland Reserve. This community is in a central Roseville location and offers more of an established community feel. Highland Reserve is once again close to shopping, dining, and great schools (like most Roseville, CA neighborhoods). What makes this community different, though, is the location to commuter routes. If you want mature landscaping, larger lots compared to newer developments, and functional layouts. Search for Highland Reserve homes here.
Fiddyment Farm. If you’re looking for newer construction and larger homes, Fiddyment Farm is a top contender. Most homes have modern layouts, spacious homes, all while still being close to schools and parks. This area is expanding, too, so there is excitement in the air with this neighborhood! Search for Fiddyment Farm homes here.
Diamond Oaks. This is a great neighborhood if you don’t want to a typical tract home. These homes usually have more of a custom-house feel with quiet streets, mature landscaping, and a central location. Diamond Oaks is still close to good schools, shopping and dining, and a quick drive to major commuting routes. Search for Diamond Oaks homes here.
No matter where you go, I want to highlight that Roseville is an overall great place to live. Between parks, libraries, and friendly community events, Roseville continues to attract buyers from all over.
