Need feedback from SAC crew

Herb

What's your timing? Are thinking in the next few months? My wife and I are thinking of selling our house and it would be a perfect retirement home. I attached a picture of a bass i caught in my back yard. My house has a dock to launch your kayak.

That is one heck of a backyard Bert!  Can I move in?   

Herb, you should buy Bert's house.  Look at that friggin backyard!

You boat and kayak will be perfect fit make sure you build a guess house too for SMC Crew.  Imagine what can you do during the spring time...leave 1 room for me hahahahhahahaha

Thanks again. We are still in the thinking/planning stage so not anytime soon.

Bones, that looks like one hell of a backyard. I dont think I can afford it, lol. Plus, I'm not too comfortable living literally next to water.

(and I think there is a website that will map them for you?) Natomas is super crime-riddled.

This might help Herb..

West Sac is still small considered to Sac, therefore your car insurance will be lower compared to Sac not to mention you don't get billed for water like Sac (last time I heard.). 

Good luck on your search.

Thanks for the replies guys. Is there a part of Sac that I should really really avoid? Somewhere you wouldn't recommend for whatever reason (crimes, flood, etc)

I have heard Natomas has a ton of houses, but if you look at the crime statistics (and I think there is a website that will map them for you?) Natomas is super crime-riddled.

I live in West Sac, but West Sac is almost two different towns, there is the old half with the low-rent houses, crime and projects, and there is the south side (literally separated by a moat, the deepwater shipping channel) is called Southport, with a few new neighborhoods, new parks, new schools, and Bridgeway Lakes (where each house has it's own dock onto a system of small lakes.) nothing in Southport predates,, 1993 I think, but the mayor is real aggressive with development, we have a gorgeous Nugget market, Lowes, Target, right inside Southport, not to mention the Ikea/SuperWallyWorld/InNOut and all that kind of stuff near the freeway.

If you are interested, take a look at Google Earth and search "Bridgeway Lake Community Park, then slowly zoom out, everything that is surrounded by water (deepwater channel on one side, Sac River on the other) is Southport, everything north of the deepwater channel is old west sac.

PS. West Sac is also close to a lot of places to go fishing!!

I do like the West Sac nugget! All we have is unsafeway  where vagrants knife each other and get loud when you don't give them a dollar.
I wouldn't mind living in parts of West Sac!
