Owning vs renting — Redlands

Property tax · $371/mo 0.70% of value a year — the ACS 2020-2024 median bill over the median home value for San Bernardino County, CA
Insurance & upkeep · $680/mo insurance, maintenance and repairs together, from the BLS Consumer Expenditure Survey — the national figure for mortgaged homeowners, scaled to this market's home value. BLS publishes the three bundled and they cannot be split.
Both are priced off the same month's home value, so they rise with the market. Neither is a quote — a specific home's bill depends on its assessment, its age and its insurer.

What it’s like
The place. Redlands is a city where households earn more than across San Bernardino County as a whole, and more adults than you might expect hold a four-year degree. The population is on the younger side, and most homes are lived in by their owners, with a good number of renters too. Winters are mild and cool rather than cold, with almost no snow, summers get very hot in August, and the rainfall is light.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in professional and business services, and in transport, warehouses and utilities. Among the largest workplaces in Redlands are Esri, Redlands Unified and Redlands Community Hospital. The usual trip to work is a moderate one, and a fair number of people work from home.
Things to do. The Abraham Lincoln Shrine is a park in or beside town. A short drive away are Mill Creek and Lytle Creek, both rivers, and Fort Benson. For a longer outing, Big Bear Lake is a reservoir a longer drive away, and the San Bernardino National Forest is a protected area also a longer drive from town.

Natural hazards

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Redlands’ census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively 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.
