Consider another city. There are plenty of other places that are better. Weather? only nice around March, April, and October and November. Summers are scorching hot with 100+ degree temps, and winters are usually very wet and cold. Crowded? No. It's population is around 470,000 people, but the city is NOT dense. It's very spread out. Only downtown and midtown Sac are noticeably 'crowded'. It's not expensive at all, especially compared to many other median home prices in California.
