Navigating North Hills and beyond

One of the neighborhood’s main draws is the ease of commute. Proximity to major thoroughfares and public transportation options makes North Hills an ideal location for those seeking accessibility and connectivity to the greater Los Angeles area. “The 405 runs right through the neighborhood, and the 5 is less than a mile away,” says realtor Corrie Sommers of Compass Real Estate. “Locals basically have direct routes to Downtown, Santa Monica and Santa Clarita, along with the eastern half of the San Fernando Valley. That’s a big deal as there are parts of the Valley that can be very hard to get to from the rest of Los Angeles.” Residents can also stop by the nearby train station in Van Nuys and take the Metrolink to Downtown Los Angeles or to Ventura. The Sepulveda Veteran Medical Center is located right in North Hills. Those who drive can expect a 22-mile commute into downtown Los Angeles via U.S. Route 101, and Bob Hope Airport is about 11 miles away through Interstate 5.
