Family living recommendations

Opinion

We’re considering a move to the Lake Tahoe area and are looking for some guidance. We have two young children under 3 and currently live in Denver, Colorado. We’ve always loved the idea of raising our family in a mountain town like Summit County, but surprisingly, many Tahoe areas (aside from maybe Incline Village) seem more affordable. For those familiar with the region: What are the best family-friendly areas around Lake Tahoe? We’re thinking long-term — good schools, strong year-round community, and neighborhoods where other families live. We’d also like to buy a home eventually. I know it is expensive there so is denver 😅 and we are specifically moving to be close to ou twins and snow! We love snow sports so snow is fine and what we want. Any insight or personal experience would be greatly appreciated!
