For those considering relocating to the area to work with SHASCOM-911, Shasta County has a lot to offer! It is located about halfway between Sacramento and the Oregon border, provides great opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts, such as multiple lakes for boating or fishing, the Sacramento River, Lassen National Park, the giant redwoods, and much more.
The Redding Regional Airport (RDD) currently offers flights to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Burbank.
Compared to the rest of California, Shasta County's cost of living is significantly less. Housing in Shasta County is also typically much less expensive than the California average. Going just a few minutes out of town can provide the opportunity to own acreage, horses, or livestock, if that’s your dream.
Some of the other many area highlights include hiking and climbing Mount Lassen National Volcanic National Park or skiing or snowboarding on 14,162-FT Mount Shasta; hunting in the Trinity Alps; fishing in the world-class headwaters of the Sacramento River and its many tributaries; or house-boating on Lake Shasta.
