How to move to Humboldt county
It made me

"I love this place, and I miss it every day."
How I did it: I moved to Humboldt County to attend Humboldt State University, and I lived in Eureka and Arcata for the three years it took me to get my degree. I was married at the time, and my husband did most of the actual moving into the county from farther south in California.
This is one of the best places I've ever lived. It's amazingly beautiful, peaceful, and full of friendly people.
Lessons & tips: If you plan to live near Humboldt State, arrange your move around the school sessions. The university has been vigorously increasing its enrollment of late, which has made housing in the Arcata/Eureka area extremely scarce for everyone. The best times to move in are at the end of semesters: December and late May/early June.
