Windsor, CA Is the Best Place to Settle with Your Family 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) I have lived in Windsor, CA my entire life. I grew up here and could not imagine myself living anywhere else. Over the last 10 years or so, the population has increased, but most of the population consists of families and elderly, so it has not changed the town much.

Even thoug ...Read More h it is a great community, there really isn’t much that sets us apart from other communities, but it has a charm that I cannot compare to anywhere else. The people who live here are happy and proud to say it is their home, and the sense of community is really strong. Parents really love the quality of education their children receive here. Since it is a small town, Windsor is a quiet town, so there isn’t a lot of nightlife activities unless you go out of town, but it is well worth the short drive to the hustle and bustle of a busy city.
