Proximity to shopping and schools between Corona and Riverside
Though La Sierra South was once developed around a tin mine, it is now home to several subdivisions in between the cities of Riverside and Corona. Residents can walk to area schools as well as the shopping center in the middle of the neighborhood. And the Metrolink train stop makes it easy to avoid the roads, but still get around Southern California with ease. Plus, “La Sierra South shares a border with Corona, so it’s a popular option for those who can’t afford Corona,” says James Monks, Realtor and Manager at Windermere Tower Properties and third generation Riversider. La Sierra South appeals to folks looking for affordability, commuter train access and convenient shopping and dining.
Enjoy the beautiful surroundings when living in La Sierra South.

Neighborhood includes a gated community
Cul-de-sacs lined with tidy sidewalks and palm trees are lined with detached single-family ranch-style homes. Many homes also reflect Spanish sensibilities, with stucco siding and earth-toned tile roofing to protect residents from the region’s high temperatures. Many homes feature expansive patios and yards that can accommodate gardens and family cookouts. Prices range from about $540,000 to about $790,000. Within the neighborhood, Riverwalk Vista is a gated community that has an active homeowner’s association. The western portion of the neighborhood contains some manufactured homes, which range from about $70,000 to about $170,000.

I love living in Riverside. Everything we need is just a short drive away. Con of living here is the congested freeways but that is the same anywhere around here. I feel like Riverside is continuously growing and that it will continue to grow in the future.
