What it’s like
The place. Kyburz is a small community in the Sierra Nevada mountains of El Dorado County. Winters are cold and snowy, summers turn hot, and rain and melted snow fall for much of the year. Across the county, most homes are lived in by their owners, and residents tend to be older than the country as a whole.
Work. Unemployment across El Dorado County is a little lower than a year earlier, and the number of jobs has edged up. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, professional and business services, restaurants, hotels and entertainment, or shops. A good share of adults hold a college degree, household incomes are high by most measures, and a notable share of workers work from home.
Things to do. Wrights Lake is a lake in or beside town, and Eldorado National Forest, a protected area, lies a short drive away. For a longer trip, Palisades Tahoe is a ski area a longer drive away, and Lake Tahoe, a lake, is also a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across El Dorado County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on El Dorado County and the Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom, CA metro.
