Which Israeli consulate serves Riverside
Two offices divide California, and their own words are quoted on the California page.
The center of Riverside lies in congressional district 39. San Francisco lists “Districts 1-22” (source), which we take to mean those districts, so Riverside stays with Los Angeles by our reading.
A routing engine puts the drive at 68 miles and 1 h 24 min at legal speeds with no traffic; the straight-line distance is 62 miles.
Calls to Los Angeles need no time conversion from Riverside: both run on the same clock.

Birth and marriage papers from Riverside: which U.S. office issues them
In California, registering a child born in Riverside with Israel’s Population Registry starts from an original birth certificate from the California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office, in Sacramento (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The fee is on the California page, and the requirement on the mission’s birth notice page.
In Riverside County, where Riverside is, certified copies of a marriage record come from the Riverside County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage), according to the CDC’s directory for California (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). For the mission, the copy needs an apostille.
The apostille for a public document from California is issued by the California Secretary of State (HCCH list).
