Highgrove is a fast-growing unincorporated community in Riverside County, about 50 miles east of Los Angeles. With a population that nearly doubled between 2010 and 2020, it represents one of the county's most dynamic areas for new residents and families seeking space and opportunity outside the dense urban core.
The community is still developing its character and infrastructure. While it lacks the walkability and transit connections of established cities, it offers an increasingly residential feel with ongoing growth in housing and local services. This is a place where you are building community alongside new neighbors rather than settling into a long-established neighborhood.
Living here
Day-to-day life in Highgrove centers around residential living and family activity. The area has parks like Highgrove Community Park within reach, but most errands and entertainment require a car. Shopping, dining, and services are still sparsely distributed compared to older parts of Riverside County, though new development is filling in gaps. Your lifestyle will lean toward driving to work, school, and activities rather than walking or using transit.
The pace is quieter and less congested than closer-in communities, which appeals to those seeking affordable space and room to grow. As infrastructure and local amenities continue to develop, the character of daily life here will shift. For now, expect a suburban environment where you drive to most destinations and have access to open space and newer housing stock.
Who it's for
Highgrove works best for renters prioritizing affordable space, newer construction, and a quieter suburban setting over walkability and established neighborhood character. Families, first-time renters, and those working further east in Riverside County or the Inland Empire will find the commute reasonable. If you rely on walking to shops and restaurants or need public transit, or prefer the energy of more mature neighborhoods, look elsewhere.
