Review of Riverside, California


RIVERSIDE CA, USE TO BE A NICE PLACE TO LIVE
Star Rating - 3/23/2006
Riverside CA, was a nice place to live.....it was a large city with a country feel. The roads about 6 to 7 years ago use to be empty now it takes 45 min to drive 12 miles. It's getting very crowded and it's getting the poorer immigrant crowd. They move here, put 15 people in one house and they don't keep up their yards or houses. It's really getting ugly here.

I moved to Riverside from San Dimas about 10 years ago. I love Riverside and I'm happy to live here. I don't know about some of the previous comments but I can tell you that where I live if nice. I live up in Mission Grove and the area is super nice, clean and freindly. The high school is one of the best in California. As far as moving to the OC we can my husband is a Physician and I'm a nurse. I'm happy where we are. The traffic does suck expecially on the 91 freeway. I'm never bored because there is so much to do here. This city is great because it's a big city with a freindly environment.
