A Regional Retail Center Planned for One of Southern California’s Fastest-Growing Markets

Beaumont Retail is a planned 280,000 SF regional retail center located at 2nd Street and Pennsylvania Avenue in Beaumont, California. Positioned directly along Interstate 10, the project sits within one of the most active residential growth corridors in the Inland Empire, and one of the few markets in Southern California still adding population, rooftops, and retail demand at this pace.

Beaumont has been building steadily for years. What was once largely a pass-through community along the I-10 has developed into a genuine regional destination, with new neighborhoods expanding in every direction and a consumer base that continues to outgrow its existing retail options. Beaumont Retail is planned to help fill that gap.

Anchor, Shop, and Pad Opportunities Available

Beaumont Retail is planned to accommodate a range of tenant types and configurations across its 280,000 SF footprint. Anchor locations, shop suites, and pad opportunities are all being considered, making the project suitable for grocery users, big-box concepts, quick-service restaurants, fitness operators, medical tenants, and specialty retailers alike.

For brokers and tenants evaluating the market, the most current site plan and leasing details are available on the Beaumont Retail property page.

Direct I-10 Visibility and Signalized Access

The site has direct visibility along Interstate 10, a freeway that carries more than 140,000 vehicles per day through this stretch of Riverside County. That exposure connects future tenants to not just Beaumont residents, but also traffic from Banning, Calimesa, and commuters moving between the Coachella Valley, the greater Inland Empire, and the Los Angeles Basin.

Access points off Pennsylvania Avenue and 2nd Street provide signalized entry and convenient circulation for customers arriving from surrounding neighborhoods. The combination of freeway visibility and ground-level accessibility is what makes this particular site work for regional-scale retail.

Surrounded by Established National Retailers

Beaumont Retail isn’t being built in isolation, it’s going into an already active retail corridor. The surrounding area includes Walmart Supercenter, The Home Depot, Kohl’s, HomeGoods, Ross, Best Buy, ALDI, Planet Fitness, Ulta Beauty, Five Below, Petco, Marshalls, Hobby Lobby, Bath & Body Works, CinemaWest, and more.

That cluster of national tenants generates an estimated 13 million+ annual customer visits, which means incoming tenants aren’t starting from scratch. The trade area is already proven. Beaumont Retail adds scale and new options to a corridor that consumers are already using.

A Trade Area With Real Demographic Depth

The numbers tell a clear story. Within one mile of the site, average household income is $105,098. Expand that to three miles and you’re looking at nearly 58,000 residents across more than 20,000 households. At five miles, the population reaches close to 89,000.

And those numbers are still moving. More than 15,500 homes have been recently completed or are currently in development in the immediate trade area, with an additional 19,695 units in the planned pipeline. Named residential communities surrounding the site include Fairway Canyon (3,300 units, four communities under construction), Sundance by Pardue (4,252 homes), K. Hovnanian Four Seasons (1,890 homes), Summerwind (3,500 units planned), and Mesa Verde Estates (3,650 units planned), among others.

For retailers evaluating where to grow in Southern California, this kind of rooftop density, already built and still building, is exactly what drives long-term leasing stability.

What Types of Tenants Fit Beaumont Retail

Given the site’s size, visibility, and demographics, the project is well suited for a wide range of uses:

  1. Grocery and anchor retail: The 280,000 SF footprint and large anchor positions are sized for major grocery, home improvement, or big-box concepts looking for a regional presence in the Pass Area.
  2. Quick-service and fast-casual restaurants: The I-10 corridor and pad configurations make the site a natural fit for drive-thru and high-volume dining operators.
  3. Fitness, health, and wellness: Growing household counts and strong income demographics support gyms, urgent care, dental, and specialty health concepts.
  4. Everyday needs and service retail: With thousands of new homes delivering nearby, there’s consistent demand for the convenience-oriented tenants that residents use week in and week out.

Why Beaumont Is a Market Worth Watching

The Pass Area, Beaumont, Banning, and Calimesa, has been one of the more interesting retail stories in the Inland Empire over the last decade. Population growth has been consistent, income levels have risen alongside newer housing stock, and the I-10 corridor has gradually shifted from a regional throughway into a genuine shopping destination.

What the market still lacks is a regional-scale retail center on the north side of the freeway with the size and visibility to anchor the next phase of that growth. Beaumont Retail is designed to be that project.

For additional context on the City of Beaumont’s growth trajectory, their planning and development resources are publicly available and worth reviewing for anyone conducting market due diligence.
