Colton combines a working Inland Empire character with access to Southern California’s urban corridors in a way that reflects its position beside the Santa Ana River, between Riverside and San Bernardino. Rail lines remain central to the city’s identity: Colton Crossing is a major freight-rail junction where routes once met at grade, a bottleneck rebuilt with a flyover that opened in 2013. The city sits near Interstate 10 and Interstate 215, within the logistics and manufacturing belt east of Los Angeles. The San Bernardino Mountains rise to the north, while nearby Riverside and San Bernardino add to the area’s civic and cultural life.
