As we continue to muddle through the last half of the soon-to-be infamous year of 2020, it is refreshing to receive a bit of good news for a change. In September, CNBC “Make It”, published a list of the top 10 small “Work-From-Home” cities in the United States, and they ranked the Grass Valley/Truckee micropolitan area (an area with a population between 10,000 – 500,000 people) as Number 1!
The CNBC report stated: “A precedence of remote working communities could also indicate solid city-wide infrastructure to support teleworking, such as reliable internet connectivity or proximity to rising, mid-size cities that boast more job opportunities. Truckee-Grass Valley is about an hour’s drive from Sacramento and three hours from San Francisco, for example.” While I would say our area still has a ways to go regarding internet connectivity, the beauty and convenience of the area is indeed hard to top.
Ironically, COVID19 could be the greatest economic boost Nevada County has received in the past 15 years. This pandemic, and the new reality of potential future pandemics, may permanently change perspectives and values regarding where people choose to live. Residential realtors can attest to the current massive urban flight to our area; and the County population which has stagnated at roughly 100,000 people since 2005 may finally increase. Improving demographics will bring economic growth which will ultimately benefit the local commercial real estate sector.
