What it’s like
The place. Lytle Creek is a very small community in the San Bernardino Mountains foothills, and nearly everyone who lives here owns their home. Incomes sit a little above the county's, and fewer adults hold a four-year degree than you might expect for a place with comfortable earnings. Winters are cold, with heavy snow, and summers are warm.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in transport and warehousing, and in professional and business services. Very few work from home. Across San Bernardino County, the largest workplaces include Loma Linda University Medical Center, San Bernardino City Unified and UPS, and the county's job market has changed little over the past year.
Things to do. Bonita Falls, a waterfall, lies in or beside town, along with Middle Fork, North Fork and South Fork Lytle Creek, streams that run through the area. A short drive away, Mount Baldy Ski Lifts serve a ski area, which suits the snowy winters, and Glen Helen Amphitheater is a theatre for evening shows.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Lytle Creek’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on San Bernardino County and the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA metro.
