A short list of what to set up first after you arrive.

  • Set up utilities and internet before move-in day.
  • Visit the DMV for your California license and vehicle registration.
  • Enroll children in school and confirm your school boundary.
  • Find your grocery store and a farmers market: see Groceries & shops.
  • Find a community, church or club: see People & communities.
  • Drive your commute at rush hour.
  • Plan a weekend trip to Yosemite, Kings Canyon or Sequoia.
