A Closer Look at Rancho Cucamonga

Rancho Cucamonga is located in the Inland Empire region of Southern California, approximately 35 miles east of Los Angeles. It is generally considered a suburb of San Bernardino, which is located 20 miles east, although its population is only about 20 percent smaller.

Most residents here own their homes despite the high cost of housing units, 88 percent higher than homes in San Bernardino and more than double the national average. The strong local economy and the limited land for new development are some of the contributing factors to this situation. If you consider renting a home in Rancho Cucamonga instead, expect to pay 65 percent more than in San Bernardino and 20 percent more than in LA.
