Just north of downtown

Muscupiabe is an established suburb bordering the northwest corner of Downtown San Bernardino between Route 210, Interstate 215 and Route 259. Muscupiabe's name comes from the Indigenous Serrano meaning "place of little pines" — set near the Cajon mountain pass, the Serrano people would move here when the San Gabriel and San Bernardino mountains lacked natural resources. By the mid-1800s, the land would be passed around between Mexico and local government, invaded by horse thieves and abandoned again. It wasn't until the late 1870s that the area was able to start developing into the suburb it's known as today; filled with older homes, ample yard space and mountain views. As the Cajon Pass once lured settlers and migrating hunters; now, the 210 and 215 freeways attract modern residents, conveniently linking them to Los Angeles and Orange County. "The best thing about this part of San Bernardino are the street vendors," says Juan Torres, San Bernardino resident and Broker Associate with Century 21 King. "Small local vendors come together to sell everything from quesabirria to elote and fresh fruit on the weekends. It's something worth traveling here for."

Midcentury homes throughout the neighborhood

Ranch-style homes with shingle roofs from the 1940s and ‘50s take up most of neighborhood, but a few 1930s Spanish-style homes with stucco facades and covered porches can be found on a few blocks. Leafy willows, tall pines and the occasional sidewalk line the grid-style streets. Most homes here sit on lots that span between 8,000 and 18,000 square feet: two- and three-bedroom homes on smaller lots range between $450,000 to $475,000. Four- and five-bedroom homes on larger lots range between $500,000 to $550,000. Progressive Properties Realtor Jeff Tell says "you get a nice house in an established neighborhood. Most of the schools have been renovated, plus freeway access gets you in and out very quickly." A few apartments are set in the northwest corner along Miramont Drive North.
