Homes with lower prices than surrounding Long Beach

Ramona Park is full of bungalows and ranch-style homes, most built around the 1950s. The homes are set on compact lots, close together, and prices can range from the lower $600,000s to the mid-$800,000s. You can also find condo units that can sell in the upper $200,000s to lower $300,000s range. “It’s a nice neighborhood," says Alan Fasnacht with Team Fasnacht Realty. "The homes appeal to buyers because they sell right away, and they come at a price point that is lower than similar homes in other areas of Long Beach, like Bixby Knolls.”

Getting around Ramona Park to the shore or downtown LA

You're close to state Route 91, also known as the Artesia Freeway, and Lakewood Boulevard, two major routes for getting around. Downtown Long Beach is about 10 miles away, and the drive takes around 20 minutes when you take Interstate 710. Driving down I-710 is also one of the quickest ways to make the 20-mile trip to downtown LA. Long Beach Transit runs bus service throughout the area, connecting Ramona Park to other parts of the county, like into Paramount and Lakewood.

Space to play and get outdoors steps from home

The neighborhood's main green space is also called Ramona Park. Some people live close enough to walk over and play baseball or soccer on the multipurpose fields. The park also has paved tennis and basketball courts separated by a playground. You can drive about 10 miles to Long Beach or 20 miles to Manhattan Beach for a day on the shore.
