Market Overview
Perris is a value and adventure-oriented day-trip and weekend destination in Riverside County’s Inland Empire, about 65 miles southeast of Los Angeles. StaySTRA’s short-term rental data for this market is tracked at a shared regional level with 8 other Inland Empire towns (Aguanga, Banning, Beaumont, Colton, Menifee, San Jacinto, Sun City, and Wildomar) rather than uniquely for Perris, so the figures below describe the Inland Empire area STR market, not a Perris-only number.
In June 2026, the Inland Empire area STR market averaged 62.9% occupancy (up 3.1% year over year) and a $227.21 ADR (up 1.2% year over year), producing average monthly revenue of $3,834 per listing, up 2.5% year over year, and a RevPAR of $142.96.
Perris itself has a genuinely independent visitor draw within this series: Lake Perris State Recreation Area, a 2,250-acre reservoir, alone draws close to one million visitors a year for boating, fishing, swimming, and camping, and has been proposed as an LA 2028 Olympic rowing and canoe venue. Skydive Perris, one of the world’s best-known drop zones, logs roughly 140,000 jumps a year. Other draws include the Southern California Railway Museum and Perris Auto Speedway. Perris is not a hotel-driven resort town; visitation is anchored by outdoor recreation and niche attractions rather than a large lodging base, with a population of roughly 83,032.
Bedroom mix, channel split, listing-type counts, and property-manager data are not published for Perris or the shared Inland Empire series, so this profile omits those breakdowns rather than guessing.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals are legal in the City of Perris but regulated under its own ordinance. Perris adopted Municipal Code Chapter 5.38 (added by Ordinance 1374 on November 13, 2018), which requires operators to register their rental with the city, obtain and display a registration number, remain reachable 24/7 for guest and neighbor issues, post required information inside the unit, and comply with the city’s nuisance and noise ordinances. Registration is renewed annually.
A Transient Occupancy Tax certificate is also required, and TOT must be collected from guests and remitted under the city’s own TOT ordinance (Municipal Code Chapter 3.24); the exact current city rate could not be confirmed from primary sources and should be verified directly with the Perris Finance Department.
Many online host guides describe Perris under the Riverside County STR program (county certificate, roughly $740 initial and $540 renewal, 10% county TOT); those figures apply to unincorporated Riverside County, not to the incorporated City of Perris, and should not be assumed for city addresses.
Night caps and owner-occupancy or primary-residence requirements were not verifiable from the retrievable primary ordinance text; investors should confirm current specifics via the city’s Development Services or Finance departments, or the Perris E-Permit portal. Enforcement is described as moderate, with violations able to bring fines, penalties, and revocation.
Market Comparison
The Inland Empire area STR market’s 62.9% occupancy in the latest month runs above the roughly 55% occupancy typically cited as a national STR median, and its $227.21 ADR is close to the roughly $220 national median ADR figure often cited for the US market. That combination is a solid overall signal for this shared series, though it reflects nine towns of very different scale and character.
Property manager and top-operator data for this market is tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Perris, so this profile omits specific operator names and listing counts rather than presenting cluster totals as Perris’ own.
Perris stands out within this series for having a genuinely independent tourism base, Lake Perris draws close to one million visitors a year and Skydive Perris logs roughly 140,000 jumps annually, attractions that several of Perris’ cluster-mates (Colton, Menifee) explicitly lack, which may mean Perris-specific STR performance runs stronger than the shared average shown here.
