Been meaning to ask this. Been living here since 2017. Rent is about $943/month for a decent place. Median household income is $56,837, which feels about average for the area. Average temperature is around 53--F, so expect cold winters. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. The food scene here is surprisingly good. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. What neighborhoods would you suggest? The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Property taxes are high but you get good services.

I've lived in Riverside for about 11 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's been a really good experience overall. When I first moved here from Miami, I was surprised by safety. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Good internet infrastructure
- Close to major attractions
- The cultural scene scene is improving
The downsides:
- Nightlife is limited
- Road conditions need improvement
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for remote workers. Hope this helps!.

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