Ukiah, California
Population: 15,000
Located in Mendocino County
Situated in a green valley, surrounded by vineyards, orchards and redwood covered hills, Ukiah residents have long known what author Norman Crampton states in his book, "The 100 Best Small Towns in America". He ranked Ukiah the #1 best small town to live in within California, and the sixth best place to live in the United States. Nestled in the Ukiah Valley, the vineyards, pear orchards and forested coastal mountains provide a picturesque setting for our City. Ukiah is located just two hours north of San Francisco, and one hour from the historic town of Mendocino perched on the breathtaking cliffs of the Pacific Ocean. The City of Ukiah is very proud of its accomplishments in the areas of community livability, high quality public services and economic development. The largest industry in Ukiah and in the rest of Mendocino County is agriculture. Ukiah's unusual climate and fertile soil are home to numerous wineries, grape vineyards, pear producers, and wood products plants. Located in the heart of Mendocino County and the Redwood Empire, Ukiah's small town atmosphere belies our dynamic and progressive character. As a small city, we value our strong sense of community, diverse population, and high quality of life. The number and quality of museums, cultural events, theatre groups, ballet and dance companies, and music organization and events in our small community are exceptional. Add to that the great variety of sports and other family recreational activities available here make this the perfect place to call home Just five miles northeast of Ukiah, Lake Mendocino is the center of all kinds of outdoor recreation. Nearby the lake is a challenging 18 hole, par 70 golf course situated along the western edge of Todd Grove Park and the southern edge of Low Gap Park. Homes run the gamut from stately homes in the middle of town, to small holdings and farms located on the outskirts of Ukiah. Prices vary too, from the mid $150,000's for a comfortable home in town, to the millions for a home located on a large piece of land, perhaps even a vineyard. This entire region is known for its wonderful climate, suitable for growing grapes, and creating wine. With a backdrop of the mountains and the promise of the ocean to the west, Ukiah cannot be beat!
