West Torrance

The West Torrance neighborhoods offer a comprehensive package of amenities—excellent schools, picturesque tree-lined streets, convenient access to shopping and parks, and an authentic neighborhood ambiance. Bounded by 190th St to the north, Torrance Blvd to the south, Hawthorne to the east, and Redondo Beach to the west, West Torrance remains in close proximity to the beach, allowing residents to enjoy invigorating ocean breezes and moderate temperatures.

What sets West Torrance and Southwood apart is the exceptional accessibility to educational institutions, parks, and shopping areas. Virtually all homes in both neighborhoods are within walking distance of elementary schools, middle and high schools, as well as several delightful parks and shopping districts. The area boasts a distinctive atmosphere, and unlike much of the South Bay, the majority of homes maintain their original size, situated on relatively spacious lots. This contributes to a neighborhood that retains a balanced and uncluttered appearance, standing out from an overbuilt feel.
