Welcome to Corona, California.
Corona is an upscale community located approximately 45 miles southeast of Los Angeles in Riverside County.
When it was founded in 1886, Corona was a small farming community known for its fertile lands and produce. City officials decided to build the town around a central point known as "Grand Boulevard," which was lined with pepper trees. Most homes and businesses were built out around this circle, thus giving the town the nickname "The Circle City."
Today, the 141,000 residents of this pristine, lovely community have a high quality of life, where most of the population is made up of young, well-educated families. The city developed as a primary citrus fruit producer and shipping center. There is also light manufacturing.
The name Corona ("circle") was derived from the 3 mi (5 km) circular drive around the city that was once used for car racing. State prisons for men and women are nearby. Cleveland National Forest and hot springs lie in the vicinity.
The city boasts 394 acres of parks, many sports fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, playgrounds, and two skateparks. The Corona Public Library and the Fender Museum of Music and the Arts provide cultural and educational programming, and the Senior Center is a hub of activity with programs, workshops and social gatherings for the city's elders.
There are several golf courses located in Corona, and the city is also home to a hot springs spa that offers mud baths and professional salon treatments. Corona is only twenty miles to Disneyland and strategically situated near many other southern California attractions.
