Note on living arrangements (No required night coverage/night call):
While we love living and working in our beautiful mountain town, we also recognize that small town life is not for everyone. Grass Valley (population: 14,000) is unique in that one can choose to live and work in Nevada County, or one could choose to live in the greater Sacramento area and make the short drive up the hill to Grass Valley. Auburn, CA, (pop: 14,000) is 35 minutes away, and Rocklin (pop: 76,000) and Roseville (pop: 160,000) are about 45 minutes from Grass Valley. Either way, you can avoid traffic by living in Grass Valley, or by living near Roseville and driving the opposite direction of most traffic!
