Driving through downtown Riverside California - home of the Highlanders & many more beautiful things! References: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riversi... www.ucr.edu/
I lived in Riverside as a kid and have happy memories. Haven’t been there in decades, but I will always be a California girl in my heart. Thanks for the driving tour.
Same! Not Riverside though, but Alta Loma, Rancho Cucamonga, and Fontana. I had fun there growing up. I got to check out Riverside a few times, especially the old mission areas, and I loved it. Ive since moved to Arizona, but Califonia will always gave a special place in my heart. No other place truly like it.
So I’m planning to attend UC Riverside and many people/online sources say that it’s a really dangerous place to live in.. is that true? Like the crime rate is really really high
@@ronithreddy.k6683 I feel like it's proportional to population size. It's just facts that in California almost every city is huge so naturally youll also have higher numbers of stats in everything. You just gotta find out where to not go at night
@@ronithreddy.k6683actually dependent on the area some areas are poor some are good but nonetheless definetly not lynwood paramount compton inglewood or san bernardino or anything like that, you have some areas in riverside looking like santa ana in terms of crime and some areas in riverside looking like diamond bar

@@navigationvlogs2922 I appreciate someone taking the time to show just how nice our cities are and why I chose to live here. Watched my city and surrounding areas grow and its been amazing to see the changes.
Thank you for sharing! I'm planning to move here in the future (after finishing university) from Hungary. I heard from a friend (living in Riverside) that the neighbourhoods are friendly with great rental prices and it's close to LA.
I was born and raised in Riverside but I've been in Texas for the past twenty-five years. While I've been back to California since, I haven't made in back to Riverside in almost fifteen years. I had to wstch this video three times because i kept getting lost. Nice upload - goid job.

@@ronithreddy.k6683 No absolutely not. The surrounding neighborhoods are completely safe. I will say, if you go through University Ave, in between these apartments and UCR, it is considered the "ghetto"... But even then it's being gentrified like crazy so it's much safer than it was 10-20 years ago. You will find homeless, but that's any major city in CA. I love Riverside, so much that I moved back since I posted the comment. Don't believe all rumors you hear about Riverside. It's a BEAUTIFUL city with sooo much to offer, from rural areas to inner city. Riverside is the epitome of a melting pot and you can find anything and everything so long as you try to find it. I hope this answers your question 😁
I miss southern California. San Bernardino/Riverside county. Living in Kansas last 5yrs now. Hopefully one day will be back to visit after all this smoke has cleared.Just saying
What made u move? I have been been living here for 11yrs & im leaving outta state soon I dont have a state in mind because i am still searching.. Hows Kansas treating you?
Glad you enjoyed it. I had to go back and confirm the 3$ gas prices and you were right. This footage was taken just before things got messy here in the USA. Though I hope there’s more to appreciate about your hometown that beats the 5$ gas prices.
@@navigationvlogs2922 Oh most definitely, Riverside is beautiful and the people are wonderful. We love it here.. was just shocking to see those prices, lol... thanks again, have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Lol if the USA at 15:13 is what you referring to then YUPPP... that sign hadn't gone below 3.50 since 2021..and after almost 2 decades of it being a "USA" gas station..its been bought out by another gas company
Spent nearly half our lives raising our children in the north west area of Norte Vista Estates. (To call them 'estates' is a bit of a stretch though) Good times. Christmas was fun with the 36,000 lights. The 4th of July block parties. Starting our lives and growing to the adults we are today with the memories. Our home was her childhood home. Moved out after 23 years early 2016 to move to my childhood home in Norco to later get the hell out of California.
I grew up in Riverside. I even attended UCR. I left for Alaska 23 years ago, but this all still looks familiar. I can't say that there is much I miss about Riverside except the dry weather.
22:44 A whole bunch of Old Money up in there. I just visited the streets are clean and didn’t see any homeless camps. Peace and Love from Dubai ❤️The kids near that FoodLab are spoiled as heck and snobby 😂
*Hye could you answer IT SAFE THERE ?? ❤️👍 which is the is the **#best** **#University** and **#best** **#MBA** there ? ☺️🙏 Would anyone know please and or should I try in another city ? Which one would you recommend and how's the city and jobs and salaries post MBA there ??*
Yes,theres a few Italian,American,Japanese,Mexican restaurants and the most important....TO ME...NIGHT CLUBS AND BARS:ROMANO'S(RAIN CROSS)RESTAURANT,THE CONCERT LOUNGE,MEZCAL mexican cantina and night club,PACIFIC CABIN SUSHI,ETC. To me is like little Las Vegas,well theres no casinos obviously. FUN. COOL PLACE. June 2,2020.
@@markogonzalez4849 thanks for sharing good things about my beautiful city of Riverside CA. But you can find some casinos in Hemet, Cabazon, san Bernardino, just about 10 and 40 miles from Riverside.

It's not very danger near uc riverside. You'll be fine, just don't walk around at night. Keep pepper spray on you. You should always be aware of your surroundings. I've never had a problem in riverside just creepy men sexually harassing me, but that's about it. The university village area is really nice and a lot of college students hangout there. Mount rubidoux is a nice place to go on a little hike and get some exercise. There's hangar 18 it's a rock climbing gym in riverside. Downtown is a nice place to walk, there's a lot of stores, and a food hall called the food lab. I like to study at the coffee shop back to the grind. I'd avoid san Bernardino, but other than that I feel like the surrounding cities are nice. Grand Terrace is quiet, loma linda is safe, Redlands is uppity, etc. Just don't go walking around with expensive clothes and your laptop out and you're good.
June 2, 2020. Hi ! I live in Riverside for the last 2 year an 6 months and work in Down Town for last 20 months(1year 6 months) and jus love it. I come from Orange Country. Today's date June 2,2020.
Just a suggestion, when you refer to a drive thru. Don’t take the least traffic friendly streets or directions possible. There is a rhythm to Riverside‘s traffic flow. You did not capture it.
Thank you for sharing. Im having a good business opportunity to start a business in riverside. My only concern is safety and racism. We are a small family. Our choices landed to rent a place by riverside university. Any suggestions or pin points i need to know? Coming from san jose CA Thank you.
How did your business opportunity go my friend? Riverside is a beautiful town, i lived in Watsonville Ca back in 1995 & i have been here in Riverside Ca for the last 11yrs near downtown Riverside.
What would you like it to have…big skyscrapers, giant stadiums and 5 star restaurants? It’s not a world class city, but there’s far far worse in this country.
I lived in Riverside as a kid and have happy memories. Haven’t been there in decades, but I will always be a California girl in my heart. Thanks for the driving tour.

Did you also attend UC Riverside?
@@Tetrax No,I didn't.
But I used to live there for a while.

That’s a major move, congrats on that! Big plans here in USA?
Close by miles not with traffic, rumor has it 2 different occasions Riverside Gang members shot at the police helicopter
Depends on what neighborhood you movie into the eastside neighborhood is the hood and shooting going on there way before I was born and in 31 lol
I would rather move to Hungary lol
Riverside is beautiful & with plenty of the things to do around here with a great environment
Sending Love from Palo Alto, CA 😇 A Lovely Downtown and the county is home to Coachella/Temecula/Palm Springs!

Hows Alaska?
Home sweet home

Thanks for your comment - you must have moved far away from home (Riverside)?

Always pass by to go to Moreno Valley
