The most coveted address is San Antonio Heights — an unincorporated foothill community with custom estates, horse properties, and panoramic views ranked in the top 3% most family-friendly neighborhoods in California. Above Baseline Avenue, North Upland draws families with mature trees, mountain views, and top-rated schools.
The median sale price is $835,000 with homes averaging 53 days on market and receiving about 4 offers. Price per square foot is $428. With over 540 homes sold in the last 12 months, Upland remains a consistently active market.
