My family moved here when I was a kid. Median household income is $73,503, which feels about average for the area. The median home value here is around $114,600, which is actually reasonable. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Any advice would be great. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

I've lived in Riverside for about 3 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it exceeded my expectations. When I first moved here from Minneapolis, I was surprised by housing market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good schools in most areas
- Affordable housing options
- The healthcare scene is excellent
The downsides:
- Limited public transit options
- Road conditions need improvement
Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for families. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

As someone who grew up here, it's not perfect but it works for me. A lot has changed in the past few years though. pet-friendliness used to be much growing but now it's hit or miss.
