A link to a wealth of housing and neighborhood information

Thu, 16 Feb 2012 11:53:51 -0800

Curious about home sales in your neighborhood? Want to check out a neighboorhood that you're planning to move to? A single link can hook you up: www.city-data.com. Once you've drilled down to the town you're interested in, just keep scrolling down--there's an amazing amount of data here. One caveat from this resident of an "unincorporated area of Los Angeles" is that the data for towns that fall in that category, such as Woodland Hills and Studio City, are not broken out. Or if it is, I couldn't find it. Happy Hunting!
