Loma Linda: Proud home of the first baboon-to-human heart transplant.

Widely considered one of the Inland Empire’s best kept secrets, Loma Linda is an older town with a rich history full of medical firsts. The hub of activity for the Seventh Day Adventist community in the area, their influence on Loma Linda has stretched all of the way from the primarily vegetarian cuisine offered at area restaurants to the weekend mail delivery which, until furloughs in 2011, was one of the only towns in the country to have a Sunday mail delivery.  

Where to Live

Loma Linda is a small community of about 23,000 residents with the majority of them owning homes in the city. There are only a few major apartment complexes in the area, so finding something in town can be tricky in many places, including home rentals will not allow for pets. The lower priced apartments are usually snatched up quickly, so the best bet is to start looking  about 2 or 3 months before your actual move. Overall, the price of renting in Loma Linda is lower than coastal areas, but more expensive than in locations such as Colton or San Bernardino.
