The University District, often referred to as University or University Hills, is a foothill community and college town located approximately 5–8 miles north of downtown San Bernardino, California. 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. 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

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.

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.
