Moreno Valley

Moreno Valley, situated along the 60 and 215 Freeways, is one of the fastest-growing cities in Riverside County. Its expanding population and heavy commuter traffic result in frequent car accidents, especially during peak travel times.

Moreno Valley is a city in Riverside County, California and is part of the San Bernadino-Riverside Metropolitan Area. With a population of 193,365 as of 2010, it is a fairly large city, but it has not always been this way. Shoshone tribes have inhabited the area since as long as 2300 years ago, but the land has since been appropriated. Settled by the United States in 1850, Moreno Valley has exploded into a metropolitan area with plenty of sights and industry.

The Air Force Reserve Command’s 4th Air Force resides in Moreno Valley on the March Air Reserve Base, serving as Moreno Valley’s largest employer. Also present are national corporations like Wal-Mart, Ross Stores, and Walgreens.
