An LA suburb packed with amenities
Located 23 miles east of Los Angeles, South San Jose Hills is a laidback community that offers residents easy access to the San Gabriel Valley and the rest of LA. Perched between the San Gabriel and Pomona valleys, South San Jose Hills is full of places for locals to eat, shop and relax. “This part of West Covina is pretty quiet, but also has many stores and restaurants on the main streets within walking distance or a short drive,” says James Torres, Realtor with Keller Williams, who has been selling homes in the area for 11 years. “It’s a pretty typical LA suburb but stands out for being more laidback and secluded. What I’ve noticed about this area is that a lot of people like to stay there for a long time.”

Home prices and architectural styles vary widey in South San Jose Hills
Newcomers to South San Jose Hills will find homes that fit nearly any budget. Single-family homes range from midcentury-era 1,000-square-foot fixer-uppers for $250,000 to 2,600-square-foot new builds for $965,000. Home styles include Minimal Traditional, ranch-style and Spanish-style with stucco facades in neutral colors. Front doorways are recessed, helping to keep interiors cool, and large front windows let the sunshine in. Short driveways lead to two-car garages, and small front porches provide enough space to sit and visit with friends. Lot sizes are a bit small, but they still offer enough room for low, wrought-iron fences and front yards landscaped with flowers. “At any given time there are a couple houses for sale,” Torres says. “They sell pretty quickly. If they’re priced well, you get offers within a few weeks.”
