A mix or classic and new houses
Elmer is more spread out than the tight residential blocks of central Yuba City. Homes sit on larger lots, providing more space than in other neighborhoods. Older styles of homes, like ranch-styles, sit side by side, facing rows of trees in the county orchards. “It’s pretty desirable,” says Nicole Rubio, Yuba City resident and real estate agent at River Valley Realty. “It's not just that the homes are older. You have mature trees, so it gives the neighborhood a more established feel.” Ranch-style homes start at $350,000 and go up to $550,000. There are newer homes to be found in the Modern Traditional style, starting at $540,000 and going up to $725,000. “Generally, it’s a very nice area,” says Judy Smith, a Coldwell Banker Associated Brokers Realtor and Yuba City local. “This area is mostly residential, but it is close to Empire Steel. The metal processing plant can make it a little noisy.” The metal processing plant operates during regular business hours six days a week, so while it might create excess noise during the day, it is not active during odd hours.
Homes in Elmer have brick accents.
Elmer is close to orchards and nature.

Tierra Buena School operates in neighborhood
Tierra Buena School operates within the neighborhood. “People want to be closer to the school, so it’s attractive to families,” says Rubio.

They can also attend River Valley High School, Yuba City’s newest high school, which has earned a B-plus from Niche. At River Valley High, students are on a block schedule and can choose from traditional coursework as well as technical education to gain career experience while still in high school.
