Banning is the place to live: geographically located in the San Gorgonio Pass between two mountain ranges giving us desirable weather and accessibility to the desert, beaches, and mountain resorts, all within an hour. We are a city steeped in history, a caring community of families, churches, charitable organizations, and public safety. Banning is a friendly and wholesome place to work and raise a family. Desirable executive housing is available, as well as moderate and lower-income housing. Clean air, ample water supplies and the memorable and inspiring scenic vistas of both Mt. San Gorgonio and Mt. San Jacinto, the two tallest peaks in Southern California, are additional amenities which make the City of Banning a logical choice as a development opportunity in the Southern California area.
