• What keeps you in the Plumas Lake area? The nice, new schools and parks and the quiet and peaceful atmosphere keeps us in the Plumas Lake area.

• What aspects about the community attracted you here initially? Four years ago, when the housing prices in Sacramento were skyrocketing, I found Plumas Lake, so that was our initial draw, then it was the quiet community and being able to see the stars at night. We also found a home that we love everything about.

• If you were in charge, what would you change about the Plumas Lake community? Just like most, adding more retail to the area, at least a gas station and grocery store.

• What are your favorite places to go in Yuba-Sutter/Mid-Valley/Sacramento area? Pretty much anywhere that has good food
