Housing market in Chico right now
OK so We're a young couple and Crime rate is something to consider -Chico sits at 581.3 per 100K. Homes are going for about $455,300 on average. Poverty rate is 12.6%, which is around average. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Growing food scene
- Lots of new development
- Strong sense of community
Cons:
- Poor road conditions
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Homelessness issues downtown
- Not enough green space
What would you do? Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The suburbs are where most families end up.
