Moving to Clovis, CA?
Clovis Resource Guide
If you’re moving to Clovis, CA we probably don’t have to tell you that there’s a number of things you’ll need to do before you move. To make life a little bit easier for you, here’s some important Clovis numbers and information on utilities, insurance, and taxes:
- Property Taxes: Property taxes are computed at approximately .0125. So on a $400,000 home that’s around $4,000 a year.
- Homeowner’s Insurance: Costs roughly $85-100 a month. We recommend AAA Insurance. Call Kim Cline for a quote at: 559-323-3006.
- Electric and Gas: PG&E handles your electric and gas bill. Plan for at least $200+ per month, depending on how much you run your air-conditioner. For example, our electric bills are around $50 per month, but we have friends who spend $400+ (they run their air all day though).
- Water / Sewer / Garbage: City of Clovis bills your water, sewer, and garbage. Plan at least $100 a month (you’ll need to water your lawn everyday during the summer). Office: (559) 324-2600 (155 N. Sunnyside Avenue, Clovis, CA 93611)
- Telephone: All major telephone and cellphone (wireless), and internet providers are available, such as AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, etc.
- Cable / Satellite: Comcast and DISH Network and Direct TV
- Newspaper: The Fresno Bee is the local newspaper. You can subscribe here.
- Driver’s License: The Clovis DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles) office is located at 2103 Shaw Avenue. It’s best if you call and schedule an appointment and not just show up. Call (800) 777-0133 or schedule your appointment online.
