Alta Loma Real Estate & Homes for Sale in California

Alta Loma is one of three residential communities in the Rancho Cucamonga region of San Bernardino County, California’s diverse Inland Empire. Nestled in the foothills of the magnificent San Bernardino Mountain Range, Alta Loma, along with Etiwanda and Cucamonga, enjoy sweeping views of city lights at night, rolling hills and a mountainous backdrop. Alta Loma, which means “high hill” in Spanish, extends up the base of Mt. Baldy. Known for its half-acre horse properties and stunning architecture, the community is one of the most affluent in the county. Real estate options consist of luxury homes, gated and golf communities as well as horse properties. Alta Loma also experiences an extremely low crime rate, has award-winning schools and a warm climate year-round. Having formerly been home to citrus groves and expansive vineyards, many homes still enjoy fruit trees in their yards, large shady Eucalyptus trees lining the quiet streets and retired grapevines still clinging to the exterior walls of the locally-run businesses in the quaint downtown area of Rancho Cucamonga. Almost completely residential, Alta Loma’s approximately 43,000 residents enjoy an intimate, laid-back community lifestyle. Children attend award-winning schools and can continue their education at Chaffey College, known locally as “Harvard on the Hill.” With more than 20 area parks and community facilities, equestrian amenities, numerous walking and biking trails, and local shops and dining, there is something for everyone. Additionally, just an hour’s drive away, there are world-class ski slopes, lakes and rivers, Downtown Los Angeles and the Pacific Ocean.
