Review of Moreno Valley, California


Moreno Valley is a nice area to live, however.....
Star Rating - 3/12/2006
I have had enough of it! The neighborhood I live in is very nice, very clean, and pride of ownership is obvious. I have lived in Mo Val for 14 years and have watched it change year after year. It is so crowded here now. The schools are over flowing, the builders keep building homes but are not building schools. The city is beautiful, but it is also very congested! Driving the city streets is like driving on a freeway during traffic hours. Everything is expensive here now....homes, gasoline, food utilities, everything! Oh did I mention that you must also be bilinqual! There is nothing to do here. You have to leave Moreno Valley if you want entertainment. The only thing one can do here is eat! There are restarants everywhere! The only extra curricular activites for the teenagers is the bowling alley, movies, school activities, or the mall. There are none for adults. No jazz clubs, no broadway shows, no cultural facilities, etc. Just bowling, restarants and fitness centers. I am leaving Moreno Valley as soon as my son graduates from high school in 2008.

I am sad to hear this. I live here and find that it is no expensive. Houses are amazingly low. You can get a three bedroom for $75,000 on up, a new home for $130,000 on up. Gasoline is the same here and in Orange County. Adults have lots to do, we have Perris Lake, our Parks and hills, Golf, and much more.
