Commute from So Sac (Sacramento, Elk Grove: to live, moving to, rated)

[lisahuffman7]

I will be moving to the Sac area in July this year to start a chiropractic practice somewhere in South Sacramento (I work here in AZ with mainly Spanish speakers).

I would like to live somewhere with nice scenery, but I don't want to get caught up in major traffic on my way to work. I wouldn't mind commuting 20-25 minutes. Any ideas? I love the eastern area along the 50, but don't really know what the traffic is like going to S Sac.

I haven't decided where in S Sac to locate my practice just yet, but it will depend on where I want to live.

Thanks

The drive from Folsom, etc. to South Sacramento would be awful. But you could live in parts of Laguna, the Pocket Area, or parts of Elk Grove. If you like more rural areas, you could also live in Wilton or some of the less incorporated areas around Elk Grove.

I read another thread about Wilton and it sounds interesting. The property values sound cheaper than the norm there. I am wondering is it a hilly area?
