I've lived in Riverside for about 2 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

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

A few things worth knowing:
- Good internet infrastructure
- Close to major attractions
- The cost of living scene is underrated

The downsides:
- Limited shopping options
- Dating scene is rough

Overall I'd rate it 7/10 for retirees. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

Bought a house here in 2018 and I genuinely enjoy living here. Property values have gone up significantly since then.

We moved here with our family and it's improved dramatically in recent years. Schools in Pine Hills area are hit or miss. Kids love it here.
