Location

• Residents here can spend the morning on a mountain trail and still reach the Pacific coast for a weekend escape, with rivers, lakes and forests in between. The hometown of about 40,000 has a relaxed, family-friendly pace and reasonably priced homes, and it is part of a tri-city region of around 145,000 that offers more schools, colleges and amenities. Ongoing health system investment, including the new hospital, supports a healthy local job market for working partners.
