I've lived in Riverside for about 6 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it exceeded my expectations. When I first moved here from Salt Lake City, I was surprised by weather. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Good healthcare facilities
- Affordable housing options
- The healthcare scene is improving

The downsides:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Bugs and humidity in summer

Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for singles. Hope this helps!.
