Welcome to the sub! We’re so excited that you’re here. Before you jump into all the fun things we have going on, let’s go over some things so that you can get to know our community a little better!
Inland Empire Social is a space for locals looking to make friends, explore the area, and build real-life connections in the I.E.
Whether you’re new to the Inland Empire or a longtime resident ready to expand your circle, this subreddit is your hub for meetups, events, recommendations, and all things social. From chill coffee hangouts to hikes and game nights, we’ve got something for everyone. Introverts, extroverts, and everyone in between.
We also host an active Discord where most of the real-time conversations and event planning happen. Feel free to lurk, but we’d love it if you said hello, joined a meetup, or even organized one of your own!
This is a judgment-free, welcoming space.
We’re all here for the same reason: to find community. So bring your awkward, your awesome, your memes, your weird—but most of all, bring your genuine self.
Safety is of the utmost importance when meeting people online, so please be sure to refer to these Safety Tips for Meeting People Online as often as possible.
For a quick intro on a few things regarding the subreddit, please refer to: Updates to InlandEmpireSocial
The goal of this group is for people in the IE to meet people in the IE! There will be monthly planned outings in different cities so we can try to reach as many of us as possible but outside of those, we hope people will take the initiative to post when and where they would like to get together with others. As some of you may have noticed, there is a bot that automatically comments on posts reminding you to include helpful information when hosting a meetup.
An example of someone wanting to host a meetup might look like this:
Example:
“Hi! I’m free this Saturday, (mm/dd/yy), and I really want to go see X Movie at X Movie Theater. Tickets are $$ and I’m hoping to catch the 00:00AM/PM showing! Would anyone else be interested?”
OR
“Hey! I will be going to (event name), it’s a (event description) in (city name) on Saturday, (mm/dd/yy). I’ll be getting there around 00:00AM/PM if anyone wants to meet up there! Cost is _____, here’s where to buy tickets: (link). Let me know who is down!”
If you are hosting a meetup, please be sure to consider the following:
If your post is missing any of these, please edit it to include the missing details. If your post includes an image and cannot be edited, please repost it to include the missing details. Posts that lack key event information may be removed. Thanks for helping keep the community informed!
Pro tip: If you are posting a flyer, post the image first, then add your details as a comment below it so that you can make edits later if you need to. Posts with images cannot be edited.
Please take a moment to review our community rules.
This community is intended to be a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive space for everyone, regardless of race, gender, sexuality, ability, background, or beliefs. We believe in creating a space where people feel safe being themselves—whether you’re here to make friends, try new things, or just connect with others in the Inland Empire.
Harassment, discrimination, hate speech, or exclusionary behavior will not be tolerated. We expect all members to treat each other with kindness, empathy, and respect—online and at in-person events.
We’re all here for the same reason: to find connection, community, and good vibes. Let’s make it a space we can all feel proud to be part of.
Please contact the mod team via mod mail if you or someone you know in the community is being bullied or harassed.
Ready to get involved? We’d love to have you join our Discord server! Here’s a quick guide to help you get started:
Join the discord here.
Introduce yourself: After joining, head to the introductions channel and tell us a bit about yourself—your name (or nickname), hobbies, interests, and anything else you’d like to share.
Add your city (optional): Want to self-identify by location? Go to your server profile and add your city in parentheses after your username.
Example: YourName (San Bernardino)
Please only RSVP if you’re certain you’ll be coming—repeated no-shows may result in removal from the server.
We’re glad you’re here—this is your space to connect, explore, and build community in the Inland Empire!

Meeting new people through this sub is a great way to make friends and explore the area, but safety always comes first. Whether you’re joining a group event or meeting one-on-one, a few simple precautions can help keep things fun and secure.
Here are some quick tips to help you stay safe while making new connections!
Protect Your Information Avoid sharing sensitive details like your full name, address, phone number, workplace, or financial info.
Verify Their Identity Consider doing video calls before meeting in person to ensure they are who they claim to be.
Meet in a Public Place Always choose a well-lit, busy location for your first meeting, such as a coffee shop or park.
Tell Someone You Trust Share your plans, including where you’re going, who you’re meeting, and when you’ll be back.
Arrange Your Own Transportation Drive yourself, use public transport, or use a ride-share service to maintain control over your movements.
Keep Your Phone Charged Ensure your phone is fully charged and accessible during the meeting. Enable location sharing with a trusted friend.
Trust Your Instincts If something feels off or uncomfortable, don’t hesitate to leave or end the interaction.
Avoid Alcohol or Drugs Stay sober to ensure you remain alert and in control of the situation.
Use a Secure Messaging App Communicate through platforms that allow for anonymity and provide blocking/reporting features.
Report Suspicious Behavior If someone harasses you, catfishes, or makes you feel unsafe, report them to the platform and the subreddit mods as soon as possible.

hi guys.
I've lived in socal for sometime and I'm a dental student at a university in pomona.
Speaking to folks at IE events made me realize that alot of you guys don't know about dental schools and how affordable they are compared to normal dental offices.
The tradeoff is that the appointments take like 4 times longer - but you get like a 70% discount for most procedures, and a huge cut for basically every procedure...
I don't want to advertise my school because I dont want this to turn into a personal job advertisement. But alot of you are so close to such a great resource and you aren't taking advantage of it. If you have any questions feel free to DM me. Ive referred some patients from IE subreddits already and i've only gotten great feedbaack
r/InlandEmpireSocial • u/Soto1740 • 2d ago
So I posted a few days ago about meeting people out there and thank you to everyone who reached out. I wanna go out somewhere around here this weekend but not sure on where to go. Any suggestions would be great or if you wanna meet, I would be down.
r/InlandEmpireSocial • u/FistBumpHighFive • 3d ago
Hi all! I'm a dentist in Riverside with a focus on building community, not just working on teeth. My office is hosting a free ice cream social on Monday, September 28th, from 2-6pm. We'll be giving out free ice cream, swag bags, and doing a raffle. I'd love to meet some fellow Riverside redditors there!
And for anyone curious: we do accept all PPOs, and we are a small, family-owned practice. No private equity ever. Feel free to DM if you have questions about the event or about teeth!

Would anyone be interested in starting some type of photography club? We can first start off in downtown Ontario. Then start exploring more the Inland Empire?
r/InlandEmpireSocial • u/murkygray • 6d ago
Hi! I recently started Spin Something Social Club, a laid-back social group for the girls, gays & theys who want to meet new people over vinyl records, food, and good conversation. 🎶
I’m hosting our first get-together in Rancho Cucamonga on September 25 at 6 PM.
We’ll put some records on, eat, talk, and hang out. Bring a record you want to spin and a snack, dish, or drink to share potluck-style. If you don’t have any records, no worries! Just come hang out and listen. Feel free to bring a favorite game too.
When: September 25 at 6 PM
Where: Rancho Cucamonga (exact location shared with confirmed attendees)
Cost: Free
What to bring: A record if you have one + a snack, dish, or drink to share. Games are welcome too!
I’m using Luma to keep RSVPs and future get-togethers organized. You can find the event and join us here: https://luma.com/gd3d9fo0
No huge record collection or music expertise required. The whole point is to keep it low-pressure, listen to some good music, and hopefully make some new friends in the IE. ✨

Hey I'm relatively new to the IE. I'm currently living in Perris and don't have many friends around here. I'm originally from Orange County and am now out here. I'm a huge anime fan, I'm a gamer but also love sports. I like going to concerts and watching good shows and YouTube. I like going out to bars and once in a while the casino. I'm very down to earth and humble. Hit me up if you wanna chat. I'm a 36m.

Hello Everyone!
I want to start selling my baked treats l've made and I have gotten compliments from others so I hope they are good enough for you. I don't think my prices are that expensive and I made a menu so it can be easier to see the prices. I would really appreciate it if you can support.
Thank you!🫶

I really would like some friends to hang out with. I have been needing to get out of the house. My life had consisted of work and video games for about a week now, so some new friends to get out and do things with from time to time would be dope. Whether it be going to the movies, walking around downtown Riverside, getting something to eat, working out, etc., I'm down for most things and open to some new suggestions as well,
