Where to Live

Whittier Neighborhoods

Whittier's neighborhoods range from gated hilltop estates and historic Craftsman-lined streets to newer master-planned communities and affordable entry-level options. Here's a guide to what buyers typically find.

Friendly Hills

Whittier's most prestigious neighborhood — a gated community of custom estates perched in the hills, offering panoramic views, privacy, and prestige. Homes typically range from $1.2M to $3M+. Popular with equity-rich sellers and move-up buyers seeking privacy.

Uptown Whittier

A historic and walkable area centered on Greenleaf Avenue, featuring Craftsman bungalows, Spanish Colonial homes, boutique shops, and restaurants. Popular with buyers who want character, walkability, and proximity to Whittier College.

East Whittier

Established residential neighborhoods east of the 605, offering good-sized lots, mature landscaping, and access to top-rated East Whittier City School District schools. Popular with families seeking value and space.

South Whittier

The most accessible price point in Whittier — unincorporated LA County, offering 1960s–70s homes with strong investor appeal and upside potential. A popular entry point for first-time buyers priced out of neighboring cities.

Whittier Hills

Elevated neighborhoods overlooking the LA Basin with canyon views, hillside terrain, and custom-built homes. Less formal than Friendly Hills but equally private. Ideal for buyers who prioritize views and unique architecture over HOA restrictions.

College Hills

Adjacent to Whittier College, featuring a mix of original Craftsman homes and post-war ranchers in a walkable, tree-lined setting. Strong rental demand from Whittier College faculty and staff makes this area attractive to investors as well as owner-occupants.
