I've been obsessing over the Yuba real estate scene for years.

Here's the real deal on what's happening in Yuba and Sutter Counties.

The Yuba Property Price Landscape

Yuba City's median home price? About $350,000. This information is based on data from the Yuba-Sutter Association of Realtors, which shows a 5% increase from last year.

Compared to nearby counties, Yuba's still a bargain. However, don't sleep on it – this market's heating up fast.

What's Driving Yuba's Real Estate Boom?

Three big factors are shaking things up:

- Jobs: New businesses = more opportunities. For more information on job opportunities, visit Yuba City's Economic Development website.
- Population: Folks are flocking here for cheaper living. The US Census Bureau provides demographic data that supports this trend.
- Development: Plumas Lake's going crazy with new builds. Check out the latest developments in Plumas Lake at Plumas Lake's official website.

All this is pushing Yuba property prices skyward.
