The Census Bureau's 2025 population figure is 11,852 for the city; many of the homes under these ZIPs are outside city limits.
A different pest mix from the valley floor
Cold months push mice toward shelter, and a mouse needs only a 1/4 inch opening to get in. Check around pipes, vents and garage doors.
Termites don't stop at the valley floor. UC IPM says the main subterranean group is found up to the upper elevations of mountain ranges. Decks, wood stacked against walls and wood touching soil deserve a look.
Yellow jackets are a summer and early fall issue, nesting in the ground and in walls. UC IPM notes one species is common in rotted stumps at higher elevations, so be careful clearing old stumps.
