Renting an Apartment in Corona
Corona is a city in Riverside County, California, United States. As of the
2000 census, the city had a total population of 124,966; a 2004 special census
put the fast-growing city's population at 144,274. The city of Norco lies to the
northeast, Chino Hills and Yorba Linda to the west, and the Cleveland National
Forest to the southwest; unincorporated areas of Riverside County line all of
its other borders. It is served by the Corona, Chino Valley, and Riverside
freeways, as well as the 91 Line of the Metrolink commuter rail system.
Despite a common misconception, the city of Corona does not include the
community of Eastvale due north of the city. Eastvale is an unincorporated
community associated with the county of Riverside.
Corona Municipal Airport (FAA designator: AJO) serves the city and has a 3,200
foot runway. Corona Regional Medical Center is a General Acute Care Hospital
with Basic Emergency Services as of 2005.
In 2002 the city government considered an initiative to secede from Riverside
County and form an autonomous Corona County because the city government and some
residents were dissatisfied with how services were handled in nearby areas. The
effort was also considered by areas in other cities in the western part of the
county including Murrieta. Whether nearby cities such as Norco, California would
have been included in the new county are unknown. The proposed county would have
been bordered by San Bernardino County to the northwest and by Orange County to
the west.
