Suburban neighborhood south of Downtown Alhambra

You’re also between the 110 and 10 freeways for commuters. Despite interest rates being high, people continue to buy homes, and the prices have continued to go up.”
Housing prices in Alhambra Vista have continued to go up due to high demand and not enough vacancies.

Rare listings in Alhambra Vista
Most of Alhambra Vista’s housing was built before 1950, but each one has a different style. Craftsman bungalows, for instance, can be on the same street as Spanish ranch-style homes. Lots are roughly a tenth of an acre, so front and back yards are small. "You'll see what we call 'flag lots' in that neighborhood," says Kevin Kwan, Founder at Realiv and a real estate agent since 2004. "Two homes that are next to each other will share a central driveway." Though most of the neighborhood is made up of single-family homes, only one sold in 2024. It cost roughly $1 million and aligned with the median price for neighboring Carpenter-Nathanson and Mayfair Park. Two duplex units sold in the same year for roughly $1.3 million; that’s also aligned with nearby areas. The lack of availability is likely due to the neighborhood’s small size and large renter population.
