Towngate offers abundant outdoor recreation
Towngate is a mixed-use area of subdivisions, schools and retail, just 2 miles from the city’s tallest mountain. “One of our most recognizable landmarks is the ‘M’ on Box Springs Mountain. It serves as a unifying symbol for residents,” says Ulises Cabrera, Moreno Valley’s mayor since 2022. “It’s a beacon for those returning from San Diego or Los Angeles.” The neighborhood is anchored by a city park with a historic trail leading to a reservoir for swimming, fishing and horseback riding.
Towngate has some ranch homes, some with a view of Box Springs Mountain.
