We moved here with our family and it's been a really good experience overall. Schools in Riverside area are excellent. Kids love it here.

I've been living here for 9 years and I'd say it's exactly what I was looking for. The outdoor recreation is improving compared to other places I've lived. Overall Hope this helps!.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 14 years ago from Chicago and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 4-bed in North. It's surprisingly good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is reasonable right now, especially in engineering. If you're in construction you might struggle.

People: Generally challenging. It took about 6 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: pretty good. Tons of options if you like Asian.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want healthcare, then yeah this place is great. But if food scene matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
