Our Take
The 95818 area has strong schools and a low flood risk, and it’s a short walk or ride to downtown Sacramento, which is great for commuters. However, the home prices are high relative to median income, and the neighborhood feels a bit too generic with limited nightlife and a moderate crime rate, so you’ll need to weigh those factors carefully.
