Moreno Valley, CA - Something For Everyone 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 07, 2010) Moreno Valley is a great city that offers something for everyone.

Castle Park is the best attraction for a family looking for the thrill of an amusement park. There are many different activities. There are roller coaster rides for the thrill seekers, arcade for the gamers includ ...Read More ing the popular guitar hero, miniature golf and an awesome magic show. There is also an Art Museum and a Historic Park in the city.

The neighborhoods in Moreno Valley are fairly nice but they don't look very welcoming to me. There are many gates around houses and very few parks. There were a few broken down cars parked along some of the sidewalks.

There are not too many fancy restauarants in Moreno Valley but BJ's Restaurant & Brewery has absolutely delicious pizza. I also like China Garden on Sunnymead Blvd because they serve Chinese cusine and have a small All American Menu.

The very best night club is Summerbreeze on Day Street. They always are having their two dollar "you call it" drink specials. Every week they also bring in two new drinks to try based on their popularity online. Every night of the week is a different genre of music.

The Moreno Valley Mall is a great mall for shopping because of all the things that it has. There are two Macy's stores, a JCPenney and a Sear's. The mall actually has two movie theaters. For the coffee drinkers there are three shops with free WiFi. Another cool aspect is if you have children there is a playground in the middle of the mall for them to play with one adult while the other adult shops. Read Less

Moreno Valley was incorporated in 1984. It is located near March Air Reserve Base near Riverside, California. While the base no longer has the footprint of airmen that it did during the height of the Cold War when it was an active duty military base, it still has a presence in the area. Moreno Valley has a population of over 200,000. This large number of residents makes it one of the Riverside's largest suburbs.

Those who are looking to buy or rent a home in the city will be able to find homes that are below the typical price per square foot for the Riverside area and the state at large. Orange Crest, Canyon Crest, and Serrano Heights are three neighborhoods that realtors and residents recommend to people who are looking to start their search. There are a number of large homes that are perfect for families in these areas.
