Colton, CA Apartments for Rent

Colton is a city in San Bernardino County known as the "Hub City" thanks to its prime location where Interstate 10 and Interstate 215 meet in the Inland Empire. If you're searching for apartments for rent in Colton, you'll discover a community about 54 miles east of Los Angeles with great access to major highways and the beautiful Santa Ana River Trail. The city features Colton Crossing, historically one of the busiest at-grade railroad crossings in the United States, which highlights its transportation legacy dating back to 1875.

Renting in Colton gives budget-minded residents affordable housing choices, with one-bedroom apartments averaging around $1,642 monthly. The city makes commuting simple via Interstate 10, which stretches west to Santa Monica and east across state lines, and Interstate 215, which heads north to Interstate 15. You'll find local favorites along East Valley Boulevard and North Mount Vernon Avenue for dining, plus Stater Brothers Markets and Cardenas Market for grocery runs. Elizabeth Davis Park and Veterans Park provide spots for outdoor fun. Getting around is convenient with Omnitrans bus service and Metrolink train access through nearby San Bernardino, while Inland Center Mall sits less than a mile away for shopping options.
