Did You Know?
In 1970, Elvis Presley and Priscilla spent part of their honeymoon at the Alexander Estate in Palm Springs now nicknamed “The House of Tomorrow.” The futuristic home, with its circular rooms and stone walls, became a symbol of desertmodern style and 70s glamour. Elvis leased the home from 1966 1967 at a whopping $21,000 for the year.
The new income numbers are out, and according to the California Dept. of Housing & Community Development, the median household income for San Bernardino County is…$103,900. Would you have guessed it was that high?
That number is used for affordability purposes, so there is some tweaking from the actual incomes folks are earning, but it’s a good approximation. Last year’s number was $97,500, so San Bernardino County incomes are up about 7%. Do you feel richer?
Those numbers also mean that according to the State of California, the affordable rent for a family of four in San Bernardino County is $1,399 per month—and that’s for a very-low income household. By that measure, Rancho del Sol’s rents are a bargain.
You’ll get your Annual Income Form shortly, if you haven’t already. You know the drill: check a few boxes, fill in some blanks and return the Form as soon as you can. Your Forms generate the funds for all the park upgrades and help keep rents down.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
• SPARC, our resident services partner, is now accepting applications for 2025 SPARC/Millennium College Scholarships.
Rancho del Sol has had SPARC Scholars in 5 of the past 6 years, so if you apply, your chances of winning are pretty good. Just don’t miss the August 1 deadline.
• Next month, I’ll report on the Budget for the new Fiscal Year, which starts on July 1. Don’t worry— there will be a LOT of money set aside for street work, depending on how quickly you return your Income Forms, of course.
• Yet another reminder: Rancho del Sol’s streets are considered Fire Lanes by the Yucaipa Fire Dept. That’s why they’re painted red and why you can’t park there. That applies to your guests as well, and especially by the Pool.
The recent fires should be a reminder of the need to allow access, and to make it as easy as possible to exit the Park and to allow Fire trucks in. You did see the photos of those burnt cars in the Palisades that couldn’t escape, didn’t you?
We’ll see if we can add a few more spaces during the street project we were able to when we did the upper streets—but when your guests park in front of your home, they are putting you and your neighbors at risk.
“Dear Dad…I wish I had enough money to buy the Angels for you. I wouldn’t do that, I just wish I had that much money.” Brings a tear to your eye, doesn’t it?
Have a fun Father’s Day!

Yesterday, I was washing the car with my son. He said, “Dad, can’t you just use a sponge?”

We do all of this to make sure we are providing you with access to companies that can help you in any number of ways. This is critical to the success of the magazine for both readers and advertisers. That is the partnership that has worked for over 40 years and still works today.
We would like to offer an incentive to any new advertiser you help us to get to advertise. For any new advertiser who wants to come on board we can offer a 10% discount on all 6 and 12 month ad contracts. The only condition is that they have never advertised before.
