e new housing in the area and surrounding areas has created more smog which hinders the view of the mountains. Also we have no nice shopping or restaurants. Compared to cities surrounding us. This is why so many Coronians still travel into OC for shopping, entertainment, restaurants and medical services.

et on the freeway in the morning is a joke. Plan to spend an hour just getting to the freeway. I would not recommend anyone to move here. You will regret it unless you like sitting in your car alot.Also there are few good restaurants or entertainment venues, so if you do move here plan to drive to another city for something to do.

onal Medical Center and Shopping Center. The moniker, Circle City became well known from 1913 to 1916 when international automobile races were held on Grand Boulevard.
Corona was part of the 19th Century citrus boom with the close proximity of the Santa Ana River. As the gateway to the Inland Empire of Riverside and San Bernardino Counties, most of America's oranges were grown here. As a modern day tribute to the arts, Fender Musical Instruments, a Corona manufacturer has opened a museum and performance venue based just north of where the 91 and I-15 Freeways intersect. Just south of the junction, Dos Lagos offers a large, new shopping and dining area with an outdoor water feature, twin lakes dissected by a walking path.
This convenient city of approximately 125,000 has two separate Metro Link train depots, making quick, inexpensive travel to Southern California and beyond just as feasible as it is desirable.
