Loma Linda Real Estate
Loma Linda is a San Bernardino County city defined by Loma Linda University Health — its medical school, hospitals, and the Jerry L. Pettis Memorial VA Medical Center — and by its identity as one of the world’s identified “Blue Zones,” an area studied for resident longevity. As of July 2026 the citywide median sale price was $678,000, up 7% year-over-year. It is a market Itzel Gonzalez works directly; this page reflects what she actually sees in the MLS, not a syndicated regional feed.

Schools & Commute
Loma Linda is served by Loma Linda Unified School District. The city sits on Interstate 10 with Barton Road as its main surface corridor, and — unusually for this part of the Inland Empire — it has its own Metrolink station: the Redlands Passenger Rail Project’s Arrow service, which opened in 2022, connects Loma Linda to San Bernardino, with a transfer there to the San Bernardino Line toward Los Angeles, and east to Redlands. Confirm the assigned schools for a specific address, since attendance boundaries can differ street to street.
The city’s economy is anchored almost entirely by Loma Linda University Health — a Seventh-day Adventist institution that includes the university, a children’s hospital, a medical center, and the adjacent VA hospital — making it one of the largest employers in San Bernardino County. Loma Linda’s designation as a longevity “Blue Zone” is tied to its large Adventist population, many of whom follow a plant-based diet; this shapes the city’s food landscape and its unusually high concentration of health-care and academic households.
Neighborhoods Within Loma Linda
Loma Linda is a compact city and most buyers search it as one market, but a few distinctions matter:
University / hospital-adjacent — the older grid near Anderson Street and Barton Road, close to the medical campus, with a mix of mid-century homes, condominiums, and townhomes; popular with residents who want to walk or make a short drive to the hospital.
South Loma Linda / hillside — newer and larger homes climbing toward the South Hills and the San Timoteo Canyon rim, some in HOA-governed tracts, generally above the citywide median.
Mission Road corridor and the Redlands border — where Loma Linda blends into Redlands; confirm the city line and school district for a specific address here.
There is no large active new-home master plan in Loma Linda; the market is predominantly resale, with occasional small infill projects. Some newer tracts may carry a Community Facilities District (CFD / Mello-Roos) assessment — confirm the exact special-tax lines, HOA status, and school assignment per parcel, and ask Itzel for a current MLS comparison for the streets you’re considering.
Market data changes frequently and may reflect active listings, closed sales, or automated valuation estimates depending on the source. Buyers and sellers should verify current availability, boundaries, HOA rules, schools, taxes, commute times, and property-specific condition with an agent and the appropriate public agencies.
Common Questions About Loma Linda Real Estate
What is the median home price in Loma Linda?
As of July 2026, the median home sale price in Loma Linda was $678,000, up 7% year-over-year, according to the IVAR/CRMLS July 2026 Housing Data Report. Prices vary widely by neighborhood, home size, and condition, so treat this as a starting point rather than a value for any specific property.
Is Loma Linda a buyer’s or seller’s market right now?
As of July 2026, Loma Linda’s median sale price was up 7% year-over-year and sales volume was down 13% year-over-year, with 22 active listings. Read together, that points to a picture where demand was still outpacing supply at the citywide level, though conditions differ by price band and neighborhood and can shift month to month. Ask Itzel for the current read on the specific area and price range you are considering.
How long are homes taking to sell in Loma Linda?
The IVAR/CRMLS July 2026 Housing Data Report does not break out a citywide days-on-market figure for Loma Linda. Pace varies a lot with price range and condition, so ask Itzel for the current median days on market for the kind of home you are buying or selling.
What neighborhoods and communities are in Loma Linda?
Loma Linda is usually searched by named community rather than as one citywide market. The most commonly searched include the university / hospital-adjacent grid and south Loma Linda / the hillside. Each was built in a different era by different builders, so price level, HOA, and any Mello-Roos special tax vary from one to the next; the Loma Linda page covers them in detail.
Are there Mello-Roos or HOA costs to know about in Loma Linda?
Many of Loma Linda’s newer master-planned communities — generally those built after about 1990 — carry a Community Facilities District, a Mello-Roos special tax, on top of regular property tax, and most also have HOA dues. Older neighborhoods usually have neither. Both amounts are set parcel by parcel, so confirm the exact figures on the specific property before you write an offer. Itzel pulls these for every home she shows.
