Living in Pomona
Pomona is the easternmost large city in Los Angeles County, where the San Gabriel Valley meets the Inland Empire. Montclair, Chino and Chino Hills sit just across the San Bernardino County line. Named in 1875 after the Roman goddess of fruit and later nicknamed the Queen of the Citrus Belt, Pomona still shows that history in its housing. The city has designated several residential historic districts, including Lincoln Park, Wilton Heights and Hacienda Park, filled with Victorian, Craftsman and period Revival homes.
Transportation is a major advantage. Interstate 10, the 57, the 60 and the 71 all run through or along the city. Pomona has two Metrolink stations, Pomona–North on the San Bernardino Line and Pomona–Downtown on the Riverside Line. Since September 2025, Pomona–North has also been the eastern end of Metro's A Line, with light rail service through the foothill cities to Pasadena and downtown Los Angeles.
Education, health care and events anchor the local economy. Cal Poly Pomona's large campus sits on the city's west side, Western University of Health Sciences is downtown, and Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center is one of the area's biggest employers. Fairplex hosts the LA County Fair and was chosen as the cricket venue for the 2028 Olympic Games. Downtown, the Pomona Arts Colony surrounds the restored 1931 Fox Theater with galleries, lofts, restaurants and a monthly art walk.
Most of the city is served by the Pomona Unified School District, and a small section of north Pomona is in the Claremont Unified School District. Housing ranges from historic homes and post-war ranch houses to condos, small multifamily buildings and the hillside streets of Phillips Ranch, which gives buyers more variety than many neighboring cities.
Pomona neighborhoods & communities
Phillips Ranch
Developed beginning in 1965 in the hills of southwest Pomona, Phillips Ranch offers hillside single-family homes, many with views, and fast access to the 60, 57 and 71 freeways. It's in ZIP 91766 and served by Pomona Unified.
Lincoln Park Historic District
Pomona's largest historic district covers roughly 45 blocks and about 800 properties, from Victorian-era homes to Craftsman bungalows and period Revival styles. It takes its name from the city park at its center.
Wilton Heights and Hacienda Park
Two more designated historic districts: Wilton Heights is known for the widest mix of architectural styles in the city, and Hacienda Park spans nearly a century of local building history. Exterior changes here may require city review.
Ganesha Park Area
In north Pomona near Fairplex and the Pomona–North station, the streets around Ganesha Park, a roughly 60-acre city park with a public pool and community center, offer single-family homes from several eras.
Downtown and the Arts Colony
Lofts, apartments and condos sit among galleries, the Fox Theater, Antique Row and the Western University campus, with Pomona–Downtown Metrolink close by.
Buying a home in Pomona
Pomona's housing stock is old and varied, so when you compare homes for sale in Pomona, expect inspections to matter more than in newer suburbs. In the historic districts, ask about original plumbing and wiring, foundation work and whether past remodels were permitted, since exterior changes may need city review. In Phillips Ranch and other hillside areas, look closely at slopes, drainage, retaining walls and any HOA rules. Because Pomona is in Los Angeles County, county programs and assessments follow LA County rules rather than San Bernardino County's. Jorge can walk you through first-time buyer programs and get your financing lined up before you shop.
Selling a home in Pomona
Pomona draws buyers from across Los Angeles County as well as buyers comparing it with Chino, Montclair and Claremont, so your marketing needs to reach both. Historic homes sell on character: Jorge highlights original details, documents upgrades and gathers permits in advance so buyer questions don't stall escrow. Near Cal Poly and the train stations, rental history and transit access can widen your pool to investors, and Jorge has hands-on experience with investment and multifamily properties. For hillside or HOA homes, have association documents ready before you list.

FAQ
Pomona real estate FAQ
Is Pomona part of the Inland Empire or Los Angeles County?
Pomona is in Los Angeles County, in the Pomona Valley at the county's eastern edge. It borders Montclair, Chino and Chino Hills in San Bernardino County, which is why it's often grouped with the Inland Empire. Pomona's residential ZIP codes are 91766, 91767 and 91768. Jorge works on both sides of the county line and can compare Pomona with its neighbors for you.
Can I get from Pomona to downtown Los Angeles without driving?
Yes. Pomona–North has Metrolink San Bernardino Line trains to Union Station and, since September 2025, Metro A Line light rail through the foothill cities and Pasadena into downtown Los Angeles. Pomona–Downtown is served by Metrolink's Riverside Line. Foothill Transit buses also connect Pomona with the San Gabriel Valley, so living near a station can cut down on driving.
How do I sell my house in Pomona if it's an older or historic home?
Gather permits, receipts for major upgrades and any city approvals for exterior work before you list, because buyers of older homes in Lincoln Park, Wilton Heights or Hacienda Park will ask. A pre-listing inspection helps you decide what to fix and what to disclose. Jorge then prices the home against comparable older properties and markets its original details with professional photos and video.
Is Pomona a good place to buy a home?
Pomona combines a Los Angeles County location with two Metrolink stations, the A Line, four freeways, Cal Poly Pomona and Fairplex, plus one of the widest ranges of housing in the area, from historic homes to hillside properties in Phillips Ranch. Whether it fits you depends on budget and commute, so ask Jorge for a free, current market report before deciding.
Is there a Spanish-speaking real estate agent in Pomona?
Yes. Jorge Viteri is fully bilingual and handles Pomona purchases and sales entirely in Spanish when you prefer, including contracts, disclosures, inspections and escrow. He has worked in California real estate since 2006 under DRE #01739762 and specializes in financing, investment properties and renovation, which is useful when you're looking at Pomona's older homes.
