What We See in Gridley Homes

1870The year the railroad reached Gridley. The city incorporated in 1905.

Gridley grew up around the Oregon and California Railroad in 1870 and incorporated on November 23, 1905, after fires in 1891 and 1905 burned much of the business district. It's named for George W. Gridley, a sheep and grain farmer whose ranch sat west of the townsite. About 7,400 people lived there as of 2020, and more than four in ten of its homes are rentals.

That mix shapes the work. Older houses near downtown need the usual old-house repairs: dry rot at sills and trim, doors and windows that no longer fit, and worn-out bathrooms. Rentals need fast, documented turnovers. Newer homes on the edges of town are reaching the age where builder-grade fixtures and flooring need replacing.
