Why Live in Sutter
Sutter is an older community with neatly planned blocks reminiscent of postwar city planning. Many midcentury tract houses still stand, with newer Modern Traditional homes also available. The area is known for its low environmental risk, particularly low fire risk, which attracts many buyers. Sutter Park is a central feature, housing the Sutter Youth Organization, a nonprofit providing a pool, clubhouse, and game courts, serving as a hub for local youth and families. The pool is especially popular among young people and residents of all ages. Dining options include Taco Time for Mexican cuisine and Sutter Cut Pizza for pizzas, hamburgers, and sandwiches, while South Butte Market and Meats offers essential groceries and a butcher’s counter. Although Sutter is not walkable and lacks public transportation, Yuba City shuttles provide limited service, and State Route 20 offers a direct route to Yuba City, less than 10 miles away. Families are drawn to the area for its schools, with Sutter Union High School offering various extracurriculars and vocational training opportunities. The high school is highly rated and known for helping students secure scholarships and good opportunities. Most residents own a car due to the lack of walkability, but the proximity to Yuba City ensures that major shopping trips are convenient. The combination of rural living with close city access makes Sutter an appealing choice for those seeking a balance between country and urban lifestyles.
