Check out the table above to see what apartments are currently costing in Redding.
Get Down in Town
Redding may seem like it’s a little in the middle of nowhere, but there's still plenty to do here. Since it is a bit of a drive to the nearest big cities, Redding provides its residents with plenty of entertainment all year long. The large Recreation Department in Redding provides renters with opportunities to join sports teams, take art or music classes, learn the basics of web design, or brave the ice cold waters for a wintertime polar bear plunge. There are dozens of different classes and programs each season for toddlers, kids, teens, adults, and seniors. Joining one or two (or a dozen, if you're up for it) of these when you first move into town is a great way to meet some new friends.
Breathe in the Mountain Air
Located right at the base of Mount Shasta, the largest (though not the tallest) volcano in the Cascade Range, Redding has some of the most beautiful scenery in the state. A short drive will bring you to the Shasta Trinity National Forest. Visitors can camp in the alpine meadows, hike up to the top of the mountain (which is an impressive 14,179 feet high), fish for trout in the mountain streams, or ski the backcountry when the snow falls. This park is one of the most pristine in California and one of the least visited since it's so far from any large cities in either California or Oregon. There aren't many signs of volcanic activity on Mount Shasta, so visitors to the park (and renters in nearby Redding) don't really have anything to worry about. For a little more volcano themed fun, renters can travel east an hour to visit Mount Lassen, where bubbling sulfur pits and hot springs reveal the life just below this mountain's stoic surface. Make sure to bring your nose plugs along for the hike down to the sulfur pits. Thank to the sulfur, it smells like rotten eggs in this small section of the park!
Head Out to the Pacific
Though it's located in the Sacramento Valley, Redding's close enough to the shoreline that renters can enjoy spending a day at the beach whenever they'd like. This section of California shoreline can be cold, but visitors still enjoy exploring the rocky beaches, searching tide pools for sea stars, mollusks, and anemone. For some great seafood and fabulous local beer, renters from Redding can also drive out to the seaside town of Eureka, which is conveniently located a short distance west over the coastal mountains.
Take Over the Stage
Lovers of the performing arts won't have to worry about leaving the theater or music scenes behind when they move to Redding. The residents of this mountain town can catch a variety of different kinds of shows over at the Redding Convention Center. Over the years, quite a few big name acts have come into town. The historic Cascade Theatre also hosts live shows, films, and traveling acts. Renters with an artistic streak can meet up with other like minded people (to put on a show or just to have a good time) at one of these venues.
