Warm & walkable residential community south of Riverside
From its former life devoted to citrus harvesting, to its mild climate to the welcoming nature of its current-day residents, Orangecrest exudes warmth. This master-planned community, less than 10 miles southeast of downtown Riverside, provides a suburban lifestyle for all residents, whether they’re military members affiliated with nearby March Air Reserve Base or families looking for a quiet place to grow. “Orangecrest attracts younger families with its active community and large parks,” says Laura Folsom, Riverside native and Realtor serving the area for the past decade. “And it has a good reputation in Riverside with strong elementary, middle and high schools.” This neighborhood was designed with convenience in mind: many homes are within walking distance of schools, parks and shopping.

Wide streets, stucco siding and tiled roofs
The streets of Orangecrest are lined with palm trees and single-family detached houses set along quiet cul-de-sacs. For many homes, short but wide driveways take up much of the front yard space. Prices start at about $570,000 for a single-story contemporary Mission Revival. Most homes are valued at about $825,000, but can stretch up to $940,000 for a two-story, five-bedroom New Traditional home with stucco siding and a heated pool.

Additionally, golfers take swings at General Old Golf Course and hikers drive north to Sycamore Canyon Wilderness Park for plenty of trails and wide-open spaces.

Festivals and fairgrounds
Orangecrest is not far from classic Riverside entertainment. About 10 miles east lies Lake Perris State Recreation Area and Perris Beach, which are positioned next to several fun venues like the Southern California Fair and the Perris Auto Speedway. Or, residents can venture downtown for events like the annual Riverside Tamale Festival. A bit closer to home, The Orangecrest Club hosts private events like weddings and dances. Finally, practitioners of various faiths can find communities across southeast Riverside, from churches in Orangecrest to temples just outside the bounds of the neighborhood. “The Grove is a large church in the area; quite a few people in the area go there,” Folsom says.

Enjoying local flavors
Orangecrest offers local dining, starting with a morning latte from The Hub Café & Coffee Bar, then a hearty meatball sub from D’Elia’s Grinders for lunch, and capping the day off with a tangy margarita from Pepito's. In the center of Orangecrest is a commercial area with shopping and casual dining. Here, locals can grab a burrito at Chipotle, ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery or groceries at Albertsons. Residents can also head to Gless Ranch along Van Buren Boulevard to purchase oranges and other locally grown produce.

Where to walk & where to drive
While many Orangecrest homes are located within walking distance of daily amenities, locals tend to hop in the car to go to work or to access entertainment. Orangecrest is close to Interstate 215, which takes commuters up to downtown Riverside. Bus routes 22 and 27 via Riverside Transit have stops along Van Buren Boulevard, Trautwein Road and Orange Terrace Parkway. Most roads have sidewalks and some have bike lanes. Orangecrest is about 25 southeast of Ontario International Airport, which offers nonstop flights to a growing number of destinations, from Chicago to Taiwan. This neighborhood is just over 9 miles south of Riverside Community Hospital.
Public transportation is available for both local residents and commuters in Orangecrest.

Important to know
Residents benefit from a low CAP Index crime score – a two out of ten – across all categories. Additionally, Orangecrest is surrounded by an industrial sector and Interstate 215 to the east. While the expanding industrial sector brings more jobs to the area, residents have to deal with street closures due to construction. “Target built a huge warehouse, but families don’t want more concrete tilt-ups,” Folsom says. “The traffic affects the residential streets.” Finally, Orangecrest carries a higher risk of wildfires than some of the more urbanized parts of Riverside.
A big shopping center with a wide range of restaurants and retailers awaits you in Orangecrest.
