I will never understand how all capslock constitutes shouting and seems to upset people.

Uppercase text is hard on the eyes, especially when you have oodles to convey.

OT, I'm surprised to really like downtown Riverside. It's not hoppin'. It's not Hollywood or SF or NYC, but it's very pleasant and in the Heritage Square area or further west/south of University called The Wood Streets are some really nice older homes. North of University is the same housing stock though slightly less manicured. That's going towards Fairmount Park, but there are really charming places to be found. The area is walkable, as much as anywhere else you'll find outside the way more active beach communities and L.A. They could do with better bars but...hey, by the same token they're cheaper . You'll find a decent, big and mellow coffee shop on University Ave, next to a gay bar which is next to a pool-table bar called Worthington's. In Riverside proper, downtown is really your only option for walkability. Your next option would be Redlands and I like Riverside better. Please don't commute. $1500 will be little problem any way you go.

If you want a more clean, newer suburban area then 5 or 10 or so minutes outside downtown on Chicago Ave around Canyon Crest is good. There are parks and trees and it's perfectly nice like most every SoCal suburb. You'll find apartment buildings near Central Ave and you'd probably take streets turning left on Alessandro to the 215 and then to March ARB. Not a bad commute, but nothing walkable in the urban sense.

Dog parks will be available living downtown, and elsewhere too. Mt. Rubidoux Park and Fairmount Park are on-leash and right near downtown. Fairmount has a lake with ducks and geese so you gotta figure... About 1 1/2 miles west on Mission Inn just across the Santa Ana River there's an off-leash dog park.
