We've given San Jacinto a D for its very restrictive approach to the implementation of SB 9, which includes excessive regulations.
SB 9 is a state bill that was created to address California's housing crisis. It allows Californians more flexibility with their urban property than they've ever had before.

More about
San Jacinto
San Jacinto is beloved by its residents for its parks, friendly small-town atmosphere, and lower cost of living. Conveniently located minutes from Joshua Tree National Park between Los Angeles and San Diego, this Riverside suburb is home to the mysterious Hement Maze Stone and the Soboba Casino Resort. We think SB 9 can do great things for San Jacinto by increasing home supply and allowing homeowners more freedom to develop their property as they see fit.
