Riverside Commercial Real Estate Market

The Riverside-San Bernardino metro, known as the Inland Empire, is one of the nation's largest industrial markets, driven by its role as the primary distribution hub for goods arriving through the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. The I-10, I-15, and I-215 freeway corridors are lined with massive distribution centers serving e-commerce giants like Amazon, which operates multiple fulfillment and sortation centers in the region. Office and retail activity concentrates in the Ontario-Rancho Cucamonga corridor and around the University of California, Riverside campus. The west end of the Inland Empire around Ontario and Eastvale has attracted newer industrial construction, while the eastern portions near Moreno Valley and Perris offer lower land costs for large-format facilities.

Key Economic Drivers

  • E-commerce fulfillment and third-party logistics operations (Amazon, FedEx, UPS mega-hubs)
  • Ontario International Airport and its expanding cargo operations
  • March Air Reserve Base industrial complex near Moreno Valley
  • University of California, Riverside research campus and medical school

Market Insight

The Inland Empire has absorbed over 250 million square feet of industrial space since 2020, but rising land costs and local zoning pushback against new warehouse development in cities like Beaumont and Calimesa are constraining future supply and pushing rents higher.
