3.5 (36 Reviews)

Situated just east of downtown Riverside, the Victoria neighborhood provides its residents with the amenities of a city and the sights of an historic community. The tree-lined streets flow along the natural landscape contours of the picturesque Tequesquite Arroyo, which forms a geographical barrier from other neighborhoods. This arroyo provides open space for recreational endeavors and plays host to the Victoria Club golf course and park.

Residents enjoy three neighborhood parks, where they gather for picnics, games of horseshoe, and leisurely walks. A popular eatery, the Soup Shoppe, lies on the eastern edge of Riverside proper, making it an easy-to-reach diner for breakfast and brunch.

Riverside is a great place to live. I would definitely live in Riverside if I could do it all over again. Riverside compared to other places in the country is perfect because it has a balance of cold and warm temperatures. It is also both close to the desert area such as Palm Springs and the beach like Santa Monica. I feel like Riverside is becoming better every year.
