Arlington Heights unfolds as a semi-rural pocket of groves, golden light, and big-sky views on the southwestern side of Riverside. Irrigated by the historic Gage Canal, its mosaic of citrus orchards, equestrian properties, and large-lot homes offers room to spread out while staying close to everyday conveniences in nearby Orangecrest and La Sierra. Sunsets over the Santa Ana River valley linger here, and weekend mornings often start with a quiet ride or jog along tree-lined Victoria Avenue.
Life in Arlington Heights naturally gravitates to the landmark California Citrus State Historic Park, where trails, exhibits, and fragrant groves tell the story of the region’s agricultural roots through the park’s official California Citrus State Historic Park. Evenings bring a dose of nostalgia at the Van Buren Drive-In Theatre & Swap Meet, a beloved local gathering spot that pairs first-run films with starlit skies.
Families appreciate access to the Riverside Unified School District, with a range of programs and magnet options across the city. Commuting is straightforward via Van Buren Boulevard to the 91 and 215, connecting you to employment centers throughout Riverside County. On the weekends, sports fields, neighborhood farm stands, and nearby trailheads create an easygoing rhythm that feels both grounded and connected.
