Is it worth buying in Riverside?
Hello, Household incomes average around $41,397 in Riverside. Rent is about $2,612/month for a decent place. Poverty rate is 36.9%, which is higher than I expected. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Nice parks and trails
- Easy commute
- Active local events
Cons:
- Hot summers
- Sprawl everywhere
- Mosquitoes and humidity
