A small-town vibe in the center of a thriving Inland Empire city

Walkable • Shopping • Dining • Nightlife • Parks • Public Transportation • Rail Service • Commuter •

Fontana’s vibrant Downtown neighborhood blends low-key residential streets with a robust business district, allowing residents to take full advantage of the finest resources and amenities of this Inland Empire community. Historic Route 66 forms the northern border of the neighborhood, with Sierra Avenue running through the center and forming the main commercial corridor. This is where you’ll find everything from grocers to specialty shops and everything in between: savor the Salvadoran cuisine at Los Molcajetes, head over to Cherp’s Cocktails for a drink after hours, or catch a concert at Center Stage Theater.

Fontana Metrolink Plaza on the south side allows you to hop on the Red Line to get around the Inland Empire and all the way to Los Angeles without having to drive, making this neighborhood a great option for commuters.
