March ARB, CA

March Air Reserve Base sits in the heart of Riverside County, tucked between Riverside, Moreno Valley, and Perris along Interstate 215. It is an active military installation where aircraft hangars, runways, and secure access gates define the neighborhood layout. While the base has roots stretching back to World War I, today's community revolves around the Air Force Reserve and California Air National Guard. Most people living here are military service members, civilian defense workers, and their families stationed in the Inland Empire.

Living here means getting used to regular aircraft traffic overhead, with large cargo planes and refueling tankers frequently running training missions. For grocery runs, dining, and entertainment, residents typically head a few minutes down the road into Moreno Valley or downtown Riverside. Parts of the surrounding airfield have also been turned into commercial business centers, local parks, and the popular March Field Air Museum. It offers a secure, specialized community with convenient freeway access to the rest of Southern California.
