Big name studios and proximity to Griffith Park
Burbank’s world-famous Media District is home to TV and movie studios, including Disney, Warner Bros. and The Burbank Studios. “The studios are obviously a big part of the neighborhood,” says Compass Realtor Corrie Sommers, who specializes in luxury homes. These film studios take up almost half of the area in this neighborhood, and celebrities can occasionally be spotted on the way to and from work. The neighborhood is trendy with young people working in the entertainment business. “It’s really cool just to drive around here. You get such a sense of celebrity," says Keller Williams agent Anne Gettings, who has lived in Los Angeles for over 30 years. The Media District has a wide range of restaurants and employers, and easy access to Griffith Park. There is a lot of high-density housing development in the works to meet the demand of prospective new residents.

Johnny Carson Park is beloved in Burbank
Just outside the neighborhood, Johnny Carson Park is one of Burbank's most used and best-loved parks. Situated on Bob Hope Drive, the lush park has walking paths, a pedestrian bridge over a natural stream bed and a robust playground under sunshades. The dedicated picnic area on a concrete slab includes a coal-burning grill. In September, the park is home to the annual Fall Festival, which includes live music, food trucks and a screening of Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas." "I would say the biggest draw for most people is Griffith Park," Sommers says. "A lot of houses are just a block or two from trails that lead into one of the most famous urban green spaces in the entire world." One of the largest municipal parks in the U.S., it's home to world-famous landmarks like the Hollywood Sign and the Griffith Observatory. The park is set in the Santa Monica Mountains and has a 53-mile network of trails, fire roads and bridle paths for horseback riding.

High-density housing in Media District
The Media District has diverse housing, though most of the neighborhood’s inventory is condos, and new development is medium-to-high density. There are streets of early to mid-20th-century single-family homes that are classic Americana. The tree-lined streets are clean and wide, with plenty of parking and unique landscaping in every yard. Architecture includes a variety of one-story housing, including bungalows and ranch-style homes, and a selection of contemporary two-story homes built on teardown lots. The community is in flux, with thousands of new homes on the horizon. An update to zoning announced in late 2023 would permit 4,600 new apartment homes and nearly 2.5 million square feet of new commercial. “These apartment complexes are going up; any place there’s land, apartments are going up,” Gettings says. “It’s become a trendy place for a younger demographic.” Single-family home prices start around $800,000 for a two-bedroom bungalow with just over 700 square feet and can climb as high as $3 million for something more expansive and contemporary. Condos and townhouses sell between $500,000 and $1 million.

Convenient to downtown Los Angeles and the airport
The Media District's main thoroughfare is the Ventura Freeway, which connects west to Sherman Oaks and east to Glendale. The neighborhood is about 3 miles from Interstate 5, which connects 10 miles south to downtown Los Angeles. "This area is super convenient to the 5 and the 134, so you can either go downtown or the San Fernando Valley, which is where a lot of people go for work," Gettings says. The Hollywood Burbank Airport is under 4 miles away via North Hollywood Way. "Sometimes there's a little congestion to get to the airport, but it's not that bad," Gettings says.
