Suburbs less than a mile from Mt. Shasta Mall
Boulder Creek is a collection of subdivisions built around the actual Boulder Creek, which flows along the east side of the neighborhood and eventually feeds into the Sacramento River. The neighborhood is better known for its location on the north side of Mt. Shasta Mall, Redding's largest shopping center. "The main reason to move here is because it's a really convenient area," says Realtor Dennis Morgan with Banner Real Estate, who's lived in Redding since the 1970s. "Everyone in Redding shops or works right around here, so everything you need is pretty much right there." Along with having all the shopping they need down the road, most folks work less than 3 miles away in Hilltop or just 4 miles across the Sacramento River in Downtown Redding. In contrast to the commercial activity on the neighborhood's south end, the north end is mostly natural space neighboring suburban communities. This maintains a quiet residential atmosphere and provides residents with immersive walking trails around the corner from home.

Three suburbs to choose from
Churn Creek Road winds north to south through Boulder Creek, and the neighborhood's three subdivisions all branch off of it. Quail Ridge is the closest to Mt. Shasta Mall. Sidewalks line its winding drives and cul-de-sacs. They connect to Boulder Creek Elementary, allowing kids to walk to school without leaving the community. The 1990s ranch-style and New Traditional homes here sit on midsize grassy lawns and typically have three bedrooms, ranging from $300,000 to just over $400,000. Shasta Hills Estates was developed around the same time. Its streets sit closer to Churn Creek Road, so homes aren't as secluded as the other two communities. The two-to-three-bedroom New Traditional and Craftsman homes here range from $300,000 to almost $500,000. Highland Park has the highest prices and amenities like parks and trail access. Mature trees line its streets and cul-de-sacs. Residents can follow the sidewalks to park spaces, and they connect to paved walking and biking trails. The community's three-to-four-bedroom New Traditional and Mediterranean-inspired homes range from $400,000 to $600,000.

Shop and dine at Mt. Shasta Mall
Mt. Shasta Mall is a short drive south down Churn Creek Road. The mall itself is a large indoor space, but the surrounding stores and retailers create one all-inclusive shopping area. Inside the mall are dozens of small outlets and larger retailers like Macy's and Ulta Beauty. Morgan says the indoor mall serves an additional purpose to the community in the summer. "When it gets real hot in the summertime, they open the mall early in the morning just so people can walk in the air conditioning, instead of baking out in the sun." Outside the mall, folks shop at department stores like Walmart and Target, and get specialty groceries at Trader Joe's and Sprouts Farmers Market. The shopping center has many fast-casual chains, like In-N-Out Burger, and local chains, like Theory Coffee Roasters. Theory offers a bright, modern space for locals to enjoy a pastry and their morning coffee. Mr. Peri Peri's Grill serves roasted chicken rubbed with a spicy peri peri seasoning blend that originates from Mozambique and South Africa. Champa Garden Thai is another local spot to enjoy curries and stir-fries.
