Welcome to Marysville
Marysville sits across the Feather River from Yuba City — a smaller, older sister city with one of California’s best-preserved 19th-century downtowns and the most affordable home prices in the region.
History
How Marysville got here
Once California’s third-largest city during the Gold Rush, Marysville was named for Mary Murphy Covillaud, a Donner Party survivor. Many of the Victorian and Italianate buildings downtown date to the 1850s–1880s. The protective levee system, completed in the early 1900s, defined the city’s distinctive footprint.
Lifestyle

Historic, walkable, and warming up. Coffee at Maple & Mango, antique shopping on D Street, riverside walks along the Feather, and bluegrass nights at the Brick Coffee House. Beale AFB families and outdoor recreators anchor the community.
