Highland

Highland is a residential city in San Bernardino County that features suburban neighborhoods and commercial districts throughout its area. The city includes quieter residential streets alongside busier shopping and business zones.

The area began as a farming community in the late 1800s and became an incorporated city in 1987. This change allowed the community to establish its own city government and local leadership.

The Highland Sam J. Racadio Library and Environmental Learning Center serves as an educational hub for residents through various programs and resources.

The city is well connected to major highways that link it to surrounding communities. Emergency services including county police and fire protection are available throughout the area.

Two separate school districts operate schools within the city boundaries, each managing their own educational programs and facilities. This dual system developed from the city's history and geographic location.
