I mean, it's on a delta that's unlikely to ever dry up completely, so the fire risk is less than that of, say, Malibu. And it's not hotter than Phoenix. And it gets ton of sun, so solar is a good option to power your AC.
Yeah Sac itself will probably never burn. More that between the heat and the toxic air from fires up in the mountains, you’ll be confined to your home for ever increasing periods of time (if that’s an option for you). The last couple of years have been miserable…I have family in Sac who are giving serious thought to leaving (especially as house prices have gone insane with Bay Area tech workers pricing locals out), and like OP are struggling with the answer as to where.
Between toxic air from ever worsening wildfires and inhospitable weather (108f today!!!!), Sacramento is fucked long term :sadness:
