Corona puts homeowners close to LA for a fraction of the cost
The Riverside County town of Corona offers commuter convenience to Los Angeles and Orange County, but costs a whole lot less than either. “With single-family homes averaging $700,000,” says Realtor Jose Sepulveda of RE/MAX, “Corona is a relatively affordable version of Southern California. You’ll encounter the usual rush-hour traffic on the 91, and you’ll have to go to Riverside for some real nightlife, “Sepulveda continues, “but right at home you'll have a low crime rate, great weather and tons of parks.” About 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles, right at the junction of the 91 and 15 freeways, Corona is 15 miles west of Riverside and 22 miles east of Orange County’s Anaheim. Once dubbed “the lemon capital of the world,” Corona today is home to headquarters for Fender and Monster Energy, with easy access to hiking trails in the Corona Mountains.

Midcentury and Mediterranean homes at lower costs than in LA
That Corona home averaging $700,000 is likely to be either midcentury ranch-style or midcentury modern with three or four bedrooms on a mid-size lot. With larger lots and layouts, Mediterranean-style homes from the 1980s and ‘90s average $800,000. Attached town house condos from the mid-’80s average $550,000, plus a $260 monthly HOA; and in a handful of mobile home parks — both 55-plus and all-ages — two-bedroom units average $200,000.
Ranch-style homes are common throughout Corona.

In addition to grassy open spaces, Lincoln Park has a modern wood-hewn playground that looks like a castle, and a neatly paved jogging course where you can greet your neighbors.

I have only been living here for about 2 years so I have not gotten used to it yet. It is very quiet and not too populated. I used to live in OC which was super populated, hectic and loud all the time. Everything is close by which is cool. People mind their business and nobody bothers you.

Living here is great. There are many other places that are great but this one is too. There are new businesses and growth coming because this is a new community and lots of room for growth. I would choose this area again due to the school and the general atmosphere of the city. The future of this city is promising.

Corona is a place full of people that you're able to connect and make new friends. Although their's really no fun places to go to. They have a abundant variety of food places and choices that you can go to. To sum it up, this city doesn't have much for tourist spots but, once you're able to learn about the city, then you're able to see what the city have to offer
