Meadowbrook is an urban pocket steps from downtown San Bernardino. The community is centrally located, putting residents within minutes of major highways, public transportation and the vibrant attractions of downtown. The area's affordability and diverse housing options make it a great choice for those seeking convenient and economical living.
Over 80% of the homes are rentals, and the area has more apartments than single-family homes. Investors often buy up multifamily properties and duplexes, then refurbish and rent out the units individually.
Single-family homes usually have Mediterranean touches like warm tones and terra-cotta tiled roofs. Craftsman bungalows and ranch-style houses are set on compact urban parcels. “I would say it’s an established, high-density area with smaller lots. Single-family houses are around 900 to 1,600 square feet,” says Carlos Silva, Realtor at Keller Williams Realty College Park with over 20 years of experience.
Condos tend to be newer; many were built from the 1980s to the 2000s. For these units, monthly HOA fees usually cover amenities like gated security, sports facilities, community centers and other recreational spaces.
The neighborhood’s median sale price is around $400,000, lower than the medians in nearby Civic Center and Hanes Park. Single-family homes can sell between the lower $400,000s and the upper $500,000s. Duplexes are usually in the $600,000s. Condos start in the lower $200,000s and can reach around $500,000.
Compared to Riverside County, San Bernardino County is overall more affordable — with a lower cost of living, lower property taxes and home value. “The affordability and lower property taxes are big draws for buyers,” Silva says. The Inland Empire’s average sits in the mid $600,000s, so Meadowbrook is definitely a more budget-friendly option.
The community is part of the San Bernardino City Unified School District, which gives families some flexibility with school choice and interdistrict transfers. Within the neighborhood, most students attend Indian Springs High School, where they can dive into career and technical education programs in machining, marketing, sports medicine and commercial music.
If you're looking for charter options, there are great choices nearby. Students can apply to enroll in transitional kindergarten through eighth grade at Hardy Brown College Prep. Savant Preparatory Academy of Business is another top-rated elementary charter school with a strong focus on reading and business skills. For private schooling, Aquinas High School is about 5 miles away and is rated by Niche as one of the best private high schools in San Bernardino County.
Nearby parks and downtown San Bernardino give locals plenty to explore:
People can get around by car or public transit. “You're close to the 210 and 215 freeways, which take you to all directions with relative ease,” Silva says. “It’s also a public transit-friendly area. Many people use public transportation.” Transit options include:
