This is the current revision of this page, as edited by 98.147.188.172 (talk) at 18:38, 29 July 2022 (The geomap location was incorrect. It was pointing to a location 7 miles away in the Del Rosa neighborhood at Sterling Avenue and East Lynwood Dr., which obviously was wrong. The corrected geomap location is now in front of the entrance sign of CSU San Bernardino. The elevation above sea level was also incorrect. The nearest survey point with an accurate elevation of 1486 ft. that I could find was for Jack Brown Hall, which is far more accurate than the 2000 ft. listed.).

The University District, often referred to as University Parkway, is a foothill community located approximately 5–8 miles north of downtown San Bernardino, California.[1] The District is named after the California State University, San Bernardino. It is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in San Bernardino along with the Hospitality Lane District.[citation needed] As California State University, San Bernardino grew so did the region around it; it used to be nothing but mid-desert farmland, but has been developing quickly to become a neighborhood important to not only San Bernardino but also the entire region.

Location[edit]

Like all San Bernardino neighborhoods, the boundaries of the University District are informal; by common usage, the University District is bounded on the west by Cajon Blvd.; on the east by the San Bernardino Mountains (Electric Avenue); on the south by the Shandin Hills; and on the north by the San Bernardino Mountains. Its main commercial streets, University Parkway and Kendall Drive, are known throughout the city as student nightlife hotspots.[citation needed]

Some parts of the University District have had names of their own. For example, on the districts southside some locals refer to it as Shandin Hills because of the local hills, which go by that name.

Education[edit]

In addition to California State University, the San Bernardino City Unified School District serves the University District. The Following schools lie within the UD:

High Schools:

Middle Schools:

  • Shandin Hills Middle School

  • Arrowhead Elementary School
  • Hillside Elementary School

University Hills[edit]
