Perched on a hill with commanding views of LA, Ladera Heights is an affluent, diverse residential neighborhood. Coupled with adjacent neighborhoods, it makes up one or the largest areas of wealthy African-Americans in the United States. Although this community is 72% African American, it is considered one of the most diverse neighborhoods on the westside. Whites are a distant second at 17%. This area is home to an average median household income of $117k according to a 2008 survey. 

Ladera Heights’ proximity to Culver City and other hot tech hubs, like Venice, is sure to drive prices in what is already an expensive market upward.

You'll primarily find single-family homes around, though there are some apartments and condos. There are plenty of mid-century architectural homes here, giving away the neighborhoods development in the 1950s and 1960s and you'll still find. Looking to buy? Homes here typically fall between $1 million and $2 million.

Since it's mostly residential, you'll have slim pickings when it comes to shopping, dining, or nightlife. 

Ladera Heights is bordered on the north by Culver City and Baldwin Hills, on the east by Baldwin Hills and View Park-Windsor Hills, on the south by Inglewood, and on the west by Culver City.
