What it’s like
The place. Millville is a very small community in Shasta County, home to fewer people than most towns on this site. Residents tend to be older than in much of the country, and household incomes run well above the county's, with few people living in poverty. Winters are cool and wet with only a little snow, and summers get very hot, with July the warmest month.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, and in professional and business services. Across Shasta County, some of the largest workplaces are Mercy Medical Center Redding and Shasta College. The trip to work is a moderate one, and some residents work from home.
Things to do. Fort Reading, a historic fort, and Anderson River Park are both a short drive away, and Cow Creek, a river, is close by as well. For a longer outing, Shasta Lake is a large reservoir, and Lake Shasta Caverns is a well-known tourist attraction, both a longer drive away.

Natural hazards

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Millville’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. 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 Shasta County and the Redding, CA metro.
