St. James Historic District Neighborhood Assoc.

I am moving to Roseville area asap from the bay area. I am not familiar with the neighborhoods at all. If anyone can give me any advice on the local neighborhoods that could assist me in finding an area that is safe, nice, and family friendly I would really appreciate it. I think I will most likely try to rent a 3 bedroom since I am not familiar with the area and buy in a year or so. Unless I find an irresistible home to buy now. Also if you can give me any input on the areas to avoid that is also very helpful. Any information will help me to find a great place to live. Thanks
