| California 210 (Foothill Freeway) west |
|
Interstate 210 (Foothill Freeway) enters the city of Rancho Cucamonga, which had a population of 127,743 as of the 2000 Census. Rancho Cucamonga incorporated on November 30, 1977, and it represents the merger of three previously unincorporated areas: Etiwanda, Cucamonga, and Alta Loma. Like other cities in the Inland Empire, Rancho Cucamonga continues to grow as a fast pace as evidenced by the construction of new housing tracts in and around the city, especially along the California 210 freeway corridor.
