College is a quiet neighborhood with a nearby college
College is a tiny neighborhood surrounded by open land and enormous mountains. It's named for Mt. San Jacinto College — established here in the 1960s — but it's not bustling like many college towns. Retirees and growing families are drawn to the community as much as students seeking their next steps. "What I notice is people like the quiet, the countryside aspect of it," says Ali Diaz, the assistant manager of one of College's senior communities. "It's a great place for young families to start building their wealth through real estate because the prices, for Southern California, are entry-level," says Susanne Hove of Keller Williams, a broker who's sold homes in SoCal for 20 years.
