Arnold, CA…Welcome back and thank you for watching another week of “This Week With The One Percent” In this week’s show our sites head up the hill to Bear Valley, First up in our conversations was with Bear Valley Music Festival’s executive director Eman Isadiar who has been getting rave reviews during his tenure as director. They have another great round of concerts and provide even more reasons to visit our local high country as the thermometers head back into triple digits and lower levels. We also had the pleasure to spend a few minutes with Paul Peterson of Bear Valley Cross Country and Adventure Company. Paul & His Wife Dianne have been an integral part of the Bear Valley story for over 40 years. This year they have expanded their Kayak & on the water fleet and as always they are your high country destination for all your cycling, gear & even the essentials of snacks for you and fuel for your tanks.

A bit about the One Percent!

The USDA did a study where they ranked all 3,111 counties in the lower 48 by scenery and climate. Calaveras County ranked 14 out of all 3,111 counties and Tuolumne, Alpine & Amador ranked in the top 1% as well. So if you live, work or recreate in our coverage area you are doing so in an area that is at the top of the charts..

On the real estate side there are only two counties in entire USA that rank higher on scenery and climate that have lower average home prices.

So if you add everything up including scenery, climate, communities, history, our wine regions, proximity to Yosemite and more it could be argued convincingly that there is no better place in the country to live than right here.

So you don’t need to be a billionaire to live like one. Just move here or pay us a visit. You are as rich as it gets!! Grey Poupon not needed!
