Semi-rural Inland Empire suburb above San Bernardino
In the San Bernardino Mountain foothills, the sometimes-overlooked area of Muscoy is a San Bernardino suburb immediately north of the city. People have room to move here, thanks to large lots, and many homes have scenic views of the mountains and desert. Many live and work in the community, as light industrial plants and warehouses line the eastern border. Developed in the 1890s as an agricultural area, the community began transitioning from rural to suburban in the 1950s. “Muscoy is a rural area with older traditional homes. It has a lower cost of living than some San Bernardino suburbs and is centrally located to the 210 and 215 Freeways,” says Patricia Rocha, a Crown Royal Real Estate broker with over two decades of experience. Centrally located in the Inland Empire, Muscoy combines natural beauty with the convenience of being five miles from downtown.
Single-story homes are common in Muscoy.

Established housing with plenty of space
Muscoy has a wide variety of housing thanks to steady building from the 1950s through the early 2000s. Most homes were built in the 1950s as GIs returned from WWII, and their midcentury styles have made their mark on the area. Newer homes have Spanish-inspired elements, like terracotta roof tiles, ranch-style architecture or both. Depending on the part of the area, there are some large lots for homebuyers wanting acreage. “It’s a really good community for first-time homebuyers,” says Realtor Maria Murray at McDermott Realty Group. Prices range from $300,000 to nearly $1 million depending on the acreage bought with a home, but the median price is $445,000. Homes typically sell after 43 or fewer days on the market.

There are several playgrounds, as well. Slightly north of Muscoy, the Glen Helen Raceway has been hosting off-road races since 1985.
