Lawndale appeals to homebuyers with affordability and convenience

For many Los Angelenos, living in an area that is not only near the beach, but also easily accessible to other parts of the city is just a dream. But for residents living in Lawndale, located in LA’s South Bay, that dream is a reality. “You’re close to the freeway, if you need to commute into downtown, but you’re also close to the beach — close enough you don’t have to take the freeway,” says Cheyne Inman, Realtor with RE/MAX Estate Properties. “And it’s affordable, relative to the South Bay. For first time home buyers, it tends to be on their lists for that reason.”
