Review of Murrieta, California


Hot, crowded, overpriced.
Star Rating - 7/17/2018
I have lived here for 13 years...it is terrible. The town is super crowded, not very much shopping and terribly hot year round, especially the summer. There is no place to work so driving to San Diego is the norm. San Diego is approximately 60 miles from Murrieta and it took me 2-1/2 hours to get home from work. Ridiculous. Every place you go there are people and more people, houses on teeny tiny lots and lots of rednecks. It is the Inland Empire after all. The housing market has not done much in the 13 years since I have lived here so don't expect to get a lot for your home when you do sell it as there is too much new construction. A lot of people move here as they cannot afford San Diego or Orange County and by the class of people...it shows. Do yourself a favor, move someplace else.
