Culver City neighborhoods compared: What homes sold for in six Culver City subneighborhoods

Culver City is one of the most central places you can live if you are in Los Angeles. It is also not one market. Prices change from one neighborhood to the next, sometimes by a million dollars or more, and a lot of that comes down to the lot, the street, and the location.

This guide covers six Culver City neighborhoods. For each one, I show three things: what single-family homes sold for, which schools serve it, and what the streets are like. The prices come from TheMLS, single-family homes sold in the last 12 months, as of November 2, 2026. Each range runs from the lowest sale to the highest, with the number of sales behind it. A range shows what happened. It does not tell you what your home will sell for.

School information comes from the Culver City Unified School District website. Anyone thinking about buying in Culver City should do their own due diligence on schools.

• Highest prices: Carlson Park, at $1.8 million to $4.3 million.
• Biggest lots: Carlson Park and Blair Hills.
• Most sales: Studio Village and Veterans Park, with 26 in the last 12 months.
• Lowest typical price: Sunkist Park, at about $1.44 million.

Here they are, listed from the highest top sale to the lowest.

1. Carlson Park: $1.8 million to $4.3 million (24 sales)
2. Lucerne-Higuera: $1.4 million to $3.2 million (16 sales)
3. Blair Hills: $1.475 million to $3.1 million (7 sales)
4. Studio Village and Veterans Park: $980,000 to $2.575 million (26 sales)
5. Sunkist Park: $1 million to $2.475 million (22 sales)
6. Blanco and Culver Crest: $1.245 million to $2.03 million (5 sales)

Carlson Park had the highest prices. The big, flat lots and the location are a large part of why.

• Price range: $1.8 million to $4.3 million, from 24 sales in the last 12 months. Land alone sells for anywhere from $1.7 million to just under $2 million, depending on the lot size.
• Schools: Linwood E. Howe Elementary for most streets, and Farragut Elementary for Keystone Ave and the 4500 block of Jasmine Ave. Then Culver City Middle School and Culver City High School.
• Street character: Big, flat lots, typically about 6,700 square feet, in a sought-after Culver City location. Move-in-ready and newly built homes sell for around $3 million and up, and the five homes built in 2019 or later sold for $3.45 million to $4.3 million.

• Price range: $1.4 million to $3.2 million, from 16 sales in the last 12 months.
• Schools: Linwood E. Howe Elementary, then Culver City Middle School and Culver City High School.
• Street character: Smaller lots, typically about 5,400 square feet, with a wide spread from roughly 2,800 to 8,200 square feet, around Lucerne Ave, Higuera St, Helms Ave, and Lafayette Pl.

• Price range: $1.475 million to $3.1 million, from 7 sales in the last 12 months.
• Schools: Farragut Elementary, then Culver City Middle School and Culver City High School.
• Street character: Hillside streets with views, bigger lots, and larger homes of about 2,400 square feet. A home that has been redone sells for more.

• Price range: $980,000 to $2.575 million, from 26 sales in the last 12 months.
• Schools: Farragut Elementary for most streets, then Culver City Middle School and Culver City High School.
• Street character: Smaller lots, typically about 5,100 square feet, and homes along busy Culver Blvd that sit at the low end of the range.

• Price range: $1 million to $2.475 million, from 22 sales in the last 12 months.
• Schools: El Rincon Elementary for most streets, then Culver City Middle School and Culver City High School.
• Street character: Smaller lots, typically about 5,300 square feet, on residential streets around Orville St, McDonald St, and Patom Dr.

• Price range: $1.245 million to $2.03 million, from only 5 sales in the last 12 months, so treat this range with care.
• Schools: El Rincon Elementary, then Culver City Middle School and Culver City High School.
• Street character: Mid-size lots, typically about 6,000 square feet, on the streets around Tellefson Rd, Molony Rd, Kelmore St, and Cranks Rd.

Lot size and location do most of the work. The largest, flattest lots in the most sought-after spots sit at the top. Homes on smaller lots, or west of the 405 freeway, tend to sell for less than homes east of the 405, closer to downtown. Condition matters too. In Carlson Park and Blair Hills, a home that has been redone or newly built sells for noticeably more than one that has not.

Two homes with the same number of bedrooms can sit hundreds of thousands of dollars apart because of these differences. I go through more examples in what $1.5 million, $2 million, or $3 million buys in Culver City.

I used single-family homes sold in the last 12 months, as of November 2, 2026, from TheMLS. I left out one sale in a small HOA subdivision within Blair Hills, because it is not like the rest of that area. The lowest and highest sales stay in, even when one sits well below the others. A neighborhood with only a handful of sales, like Blanco and Culver Crest, can look very different a few months from now.

Culver City has its own school district, Culver City Unified. It has one middle school and one high school, so every neighborhood above feeds into the same two. Elementary school depends on your address. The district has four elementary attendance areas: La Ballona, Linwood E. Howe, Farragut, and El Rincon. A single street can split between two of them.

The school information above comes from the Culver City Unified School District website, using the district’s address listing for the streets in each area. The district says its address listing is the official source and its map is only a general guide. School assignments can change, so anyone thinking about buying in Culver City should do their own due diligence on schools and confirm their exact address with the district. If you are wondering what makes Culver City its own city, I wrote about that in Is Culver City part of Los Angeles?

Culver City has its own transfer tax on top of the county tax, and property taxes work the way they do across California. I cover the rates and what a seller owes in selling a longtime Culver City home. If you are weighing a move and are worried about losing a low property tax base, read will I lose my low property taxes if I sell?

Start with your budget, then look at the neighborhoods that match it. Tour the streets at different times of day, and look at what actually sold nearby, not just what is listed.

For the bigger picture on prices and speed, see my Culver City market update. If you want the story behind one of these areas, I wrote about the history of Blair Hills.

What are the main neighborhoods in Culver City?

This guide covers six: Carlson Park, Lucerne-Higuera, Blair Hills, Studio Village and Veterans Park, Sunkist Park, and Blanco and Culver Crest. Culver City has other areas too, and the borders between them are not always sharp.

Which Culver City neighborhood has the highest home prices?

Carlson Park. Single-family homes there sold for $1.8 million to $4.3 million over the last 12 months, based on 24 sales, and land alone sells for $1.7 million to just under $2 million depending on the lot size.

Which Culver City neighborhood has the lowest typical home price?

Sunkist Park. Its typical sold price was about $1.44 million across 22 sales, and its range was $1 million to $2.475 million.

Do all Culver City neighborhoods have the same schools?

They share one middle school and one high school, Culver City Middle School and Culver City High School. Elementary school depends on your address, so confirm it with Culver City Unified.

Does a neighborhood’s price range tell me what my home is worth?

No. A range shows the lowest and highest sale in that area, and lot, condition, and street can move one home far from the middle. A home valuation looks at your specific house.
