Review of Riverside, California


You don't want to live here
Star Rating - 5/20/2007
Riverside is great if you like expensive homes 400,000+, congested traffic, unsafe schools, and no community spirit. People are indifferent or downright unfriendly. I would not recommend Riverside for raising a family in. There is not much to do other than eat and go the the movies. Condos are popping up all over and the once beautiful hills and expansive land is being overridden by overcrowding.
