Perris is a fast-growing city in Riverside County with a population that has grown from around 36,000 in 2000 to over 80,000 today. Located about 75 miles east of Los Angeles and well inland from the coast, Perris sits in the Perris Valley with the Santa Ana Mountains to the west and the San Jacinto Mountains to the east. The city has become a significant hub for distribution and warehouse operations in recent years, with major logistics facilities along its industrial corridors employing a large share of local residents. On the residential side, the city is primarily composed of single-family owner-occupied homes, with a mix of older properties near the original downtown area along D Street and a large number of newer stucco-and-tile-roof tract homes in subdivisions that were developed across the 1990s and 2000s. According to the city profile on Wikipedia, Perris is home to Lake Perris State Recreation Area to the east - a major regional park and reservoir used for boating, fishing, and camping by residents from across Riverside County.
Perris is a working-family city, and most homeowners here are invested in keeping their properties in good shape over the long term. The large share of owner-occupied households means there is steady demand for home improvement and maintenance work from people who plan to stay in their homes and want them to perform well. The city is expanding, with new subdivisions continuing to be built on the north and west sides, but the bulk of insulation work comes from the existing 1990s-to-2010s tract stock that is now at the age for its first real upgrade. Nearby Hemet to the southeast has an older housing profile and a different set of insulation challenges, and neighboring Coachella to the east serves as the home base for our team. We know this part of Riverside County well and can speak to the differences between these communities from direct experience on the ground.
