What shapes a project in Riverside
Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.
Mid-1970s median build year
Census estimates for 2020 to 2024 place Riverside's median housing build year at 1976, the same as the statewide figure. About half the city's homes are around 50 years old or older.
Mostly detached and owner-occupied
About 64 percent of Riverside housing units are single-family detached houses, and about 57 percent of occupied homes are owner-occupied. In neighborhoods with a homeowners association, exterior projects may also need association review, which state law requires to be fair, reasonable and expeditious.
