An old city with recent beginnings. The city itself has been active since the mid 1800's. Route 66 runs right through the middle of it with the Sycamore Inn (est. 1848) still in operation at the west end of the city. Much of the city was established by Italian families who created Rancho Cucamonga's wine history. Though almost all of the vineyards and vintners are gone now (some relocating and taking their grapes to Temecula, Ca.), the city still holds on to their wine-making heritage. The city was called Cucamonga until it was finally incorporated in the mid 1970's and changed its name to Rancho Cucamonga.
Rancho is also home to the Cucamonga Quakes, a minor league, baseball team owned by the Los Angeles Dodgers, where you can often catch a pro-player rehabbing before being released from the disabled list.
Rancho is mainly middle to upper middle income. It sits geographically well between the 10, 15 and 210 freeways, making any excursion easy to navigate to. Las Vegas is about 3.5 hours away. San Diego about 2 hours and Los Angeles about 1 hour.
It's a pretty cool city, but it ain't cheap. The schools are top rated, which brings in people with money. Especially the Asian community. And it has a shit ton of rub-n-tug massage parlors.

"What are you up to today?"
" Not sure. Might catch a Quakes game, then go get a rub down at the Happy Day Spa then get some grub at Victoria Gardens. Telling you, man. Living in Rancho Cucamonga ain't half bad."
