Where are the best places to live in Stockton?

My family and I have lived in Modesto for a few years but we’re looking for a bit of a change. I’m considering moving up toward Stockton to be closer to family and friends, but I don’t know much about the area. Where are the best places to live there?

If swapping
Modesto
for
Stockton
means you can be closer to friends and family, that certainly sounds like a good change to make! The best places to live in Stockton include Brookside, Village Oak, Spanos Park, Lincoln Village West, and Pacific—but the right one for you will depend on what you’re looking for in a community.
Here’s a look at each neighborhood:
  • Brookside—low crime, great schools, family neighborhood
  • Village Oak—mixed city and rural atmosphere, diverse restaurants, relatively cheap housing
  • Spanos Park—quiet neighborhood, many outdoor recreation opportunities, access to popular business centers (eg; Target, Walmart), pricier housing
  • Lincoln Village West—affordable housing, great river views, great schools, diverse family community
  • Pacific—very affordable housing, family-friendly attractions, great shopping district
Once you decide on (and move to) your new Stockton address, you’ll want to make sure you update your car insurance company with your change of address. Insurers use your location as a factor when calculating your rates—so you must let them know when that factor has changed.
That said, moving house is already a hectic and time-consuming process—spending hours researching affordable car insurance options for your new address may be the last thing you want to do! That’s where
