Quiet residential neighborhood in southeast Alhambra

The southeast Alhambra neighborhood of Alhambra Hills has a distinctive mix of suburban living framed by gently rolling terrain and tree-lined streets. Located just south of the city’s famous Valley Boulevard and just north of Interstate 10, the neighborhood offers easy access to the best parts of town and easy commuting to Greater LA. “The location is great, getting to LA is very convenient, and you can access all of the major freeways,” says Alhambra native Kelly Tran, a broker with Compass Real Estate. “It’s just generally a nice area to live in.”

Ranch-style and Spanish-style homes

Most of the homes here were built during the early- to mid-20th century. Ranch-style layouts and Spanish revival architecture are both common throughout the neighborhood. Over time, numerous properties have been updated with modern interiors and open floor plans while retaining their original charm. In some parts of the neighborhood, newer infill projects and custom builds offer contemporary design options, often with scenic views of the surrounding hills. Most homes go for between $900,000 and $1.2 million. The neighborhood has a CAP Index crime score of 3 out of 10, below the national average of 4.

Events

Alambra’s famous Lunar New Year Festival is by far the largest local event of the year and takes place every January or February in the center of the city. The festival features East Asian music, dancing and food vendors and draws tens of thousands of visitors. The planners coordinate with their counterparts in neighboring San Gabriel to make sure the events fall on separate weekends.

Transportation

The neighborhood’s incredibly convenient location is a major part of its appeal. On top of its proximity to shopping, it’s right next to the I-10 and I-710, so commuting to much of central and east LA is a breeze — or as breezy as LA traffic allows it to be. “The 710 extension plan fell through a few years ago, so Fremont can get pretty congested for those heading to Pasadena,” says Kwan. Traffic noise from the highway can be an issue for some homes on the south side of the neighborhood, but it is mostly muffled by noise barriers. Alhambra Hills is also just a few blocks away from the Cal State LA station on the San Bernadino Metrolink Line, which connects to Downtown LA and San Bernadino.
