Eagle Glen, a neighborhood in Corona, California, transformed from a White Plurality community in 2013 to a Moderate Diversity community by 2022. The racial composition changed significantly over this period. The White population decreased from 48% to 43%, while the Black population increased from 3% to 12%. The Hispanic population slightly decreased from 29% to 27%, and the Asian population remained relatively stable between 13-17%. As of 2022, the neighborhood's racial distribution consists of White (43%), Hispanic (27%), Asian (13%), and Black (12%) populations.
The economic status of Eagle Glen remained strong throughout this period. The median income increased from $127,001 in 2013 to $143,319 in 2022, representing a 12.8% growth. This economic growth occurred simultaneously with the increasing diversity of the neighborhood, indicating that the area remained attractive to high-income earners from various racial backgrounds.
The population of Eagle Glen experienced fluctuations during this period. It reached a peak of 4,055 in 2018 and subsequently decreased to 3,203 in 2022. This population change may indicate a trend towards smaller household sizes or a shift in housing preferences, potentially influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on urban living patterns.
The demographic shifts observed in Eagle Glen are consistent with broader trends seen in many suburban areas across the United States, where increasing diversity is becoming common. However, Eagle Glen's high median income distinguishes it from many areas experiencing similar demographic changes. The significant growth in the Black population is notable and may reflect a broader trend of increased Black homeownership in affluent suburban areas.
Eagle Glen's economic resilience, maintaining high median incomes despite demographic shifts, contrasts with some national trends where increasing diversity has sometimes been associated with economic challenges. This suggests that Eagle Glen has successfully integrated new residents while maintaining its economic status, possibly due to its desirable location and amenities such as the golf course.
Eagle Glen represents a dynamic suburban community that has evolved from a predominantly White area to one of Moderate Diversity over the past decade. This transition has occurred alongside steady economic growth, creating a unique combination of racial diversity and affluence. The continued evolution of these demographic and economic trends will likely shape the character and community dynamics of Eagle Glen in the future.
