Who can tell me something about Riverside and Corona California?
My company wants me to relocate to Corona or Riversdale in California for work. I am from Chicago and have never been to California. Close I came to would be Portland Oregon or Las Vegas. So I want someone to tell me pros and cons of these places. Have a hard choice to make! Thanks for your help.

Answer 1 :
Well, living in Corona or Riverside would be a lot cheaper than living in LA county, but its cheaper for a reason... The crime rate is extremely high and neither of those cities is worth living in... or visiting. They're basically in the part of California that Californians try to avoid. If I were you, I wouldnt transfer here if those are the cities theyre going to send you to. If it was Monrovia or Arcadia, I'd say go for it! because those cities are safe... Corona and Riverside, not so much. Sorry.
Answer 2 :
Riverside and Corona are not bad cities overall. As with any city (i'm sure you know what I'm talking about as you are from Chicago), there are pros and cons to both. Both have some very nice areas but both also ahve some very bad areas. These bad areas are filled with crime and just are not happy places for anyone to be - for any reason. Downtown Riverside is a nice place, with the hustle of a medium-sized city but not anywhere near the bustle of a large city. If these are your only two choices to work, then clearly your stuck. Otherwise, do try to find a slightly nicer city in Orange County. But if you must go to Riv or Cor, then just fly out ahead of time and get the feel.
Answer 3 :
So you get to pick between Riverside and Corona. Both are great places regardless what others say. They are both very large towns populated with many many people so of course there is going to be bad things going on. But they're are also excellent places to live there too. In Riverside, a nice place to live is in 92506 area code. It is about 5 minutes west of downtown. I has very nice houses and safe neighborhood. It is also linked to the best schools in Riverside: Washington Elementary, Gage Middle School, Poly High School. Also anywhere close to these schools are quite nice. They are very quite side streets. If you are looking for an older house, the best place to look is in the wood streets. They are located off the main street of Brockton. These are alright house safe place to live just old houses. But for your best bet I would choose to live in 92506 area code or near any of those schools mentioned above. In Corona a nice place to live is by Corona High School. Seems to be a very quite streets. Im sorry I do not to much about Corona but as you can tell I live in Riverside. But both places are great to live in. Good luck choosing! You'll make the right choice
