Here’s some good news for Eureka: While not No. 1, the city has taken the second slot on Sunset Magazine’s list of “20 Game Changing Places to Live” that is coming out in the February edition.
The vignette accompanying the entry goes as follows: “This small seaport spent a decade restoring its waterfront with a newly completed 6-mile pedestrian trail. Adding to the charm are grand 19th-century homes, proximity to redwoods, and more artists per capita than anywhere else in the state.”
Congratulations on the accolades, Eureka.
For the record, Sacramento took top honors while Truckee, Fresno, Carlsbad, Carson City, Oxnard, Palm Springs, Salida, Colorado and Missoula, Montana, rounded off the Top 10.

Eureka has had much more than its fair share of coverage in Sunset, largely due to the efforts of the Visitors Bureau.
