Tehama County Community
Tehama County unfolds onto rolling foothills, excellent rangeland, and spectacular flat-topped buttes; then sweeps down onto the fertile floor of the Sacramento River Valley (elevation at Red Bluff is 341 ft.). The meandering Sacramento River is one of the largest salmon-spawning rivers in the world and is a very popular fishing destination.
The county contains 2,962.27 square miles of land and water, including high-density, suburban-style neighborhoods, an historic Victorian district in the county seat, homes with large lots to moderate three- to five-acre parcels, and larger ranches that encompass 2000-plus acres. An average home in Tehama County is a mere fraction of the cost of housing in the San Francisco Bay Area or Sacramento. Many quality custom home builders choose to operate in Tehama County and provide quality construction with the most up-to-date immenities.
Educational choices include public and private school districts, a charter school, and the Shasta Community College Red Bluff campus. Higher education opportunities are available in nearby Redding and Chico.
Our quality of life is not measured by car brands, shopping centers, nor exclusive neighborhoods, but rather by our involvement in the community, the friends who share our daily lives, and the beauty and serenity of the countryside that cradles us.
