Retail

It’s a virtuous cycle: Start with one of the county’s highest median incomes, then add substantial traffic counts. That means customers are at your door and ready to spend, while Loma Linda’s attractive retail settings help create inviting, endlessly repeatable customer experiences. Lower lease rates also add to profitability.

A demographic snapshot shows your winning scorecard of advantages in Loma Linda:

• 80,000 local traffic count
• 272,000+ freeway traffic counts
• $82,000+ median household income (one of the highest in the County)
• Population of 209,000+ within 5 miles, and 2.2 million within 25 miles.

These are the kind of numbers that assure a resilient customer base for your retail or dining establishment, day in, day out, year in, year out.

Both residents and visitors find Loma Linda a rewarding place to spend time, and money, in a setting that’s both relaxing and inspiring, a townscape set against a serene skyline graced by the San Bernardino and San Jacinto Mountains. Retail and dining settings also aim high in amenities and ease at venues such as the bustling Loma Linda Town Center and the Loma Linda Town Plaza, where vibrant anchors, freeway visibility and easy mobility have created a retail/office landmark.

From big-box convenience to vintage treasures, from franchise fare to unique local treats, Loma Linda welcomes and supports all kinds of retail and dining. Dining is especially high quality in one of only five Blue Zone cities in the world. Founded by Seventh-day Adventists as a place where people could live longer, healthier and more spiritually fulfilling lives, today the City is populated by many residents who live as much as 10 years longer than the national average thanks in part to dietary habits supported and encouraged by Loma Linda’s delightfully healthful choices in dining.
