Torrance is the big, established city of the South Bay — wide tracts of well-kept single-family homes, a walkable Old Torrance downtown, the Hollywood Riviera on its coastal edge, and Del Amo Fashion Center in the middle of it all. It's a city built for families and long stays.

Neighborhoods have distinct characters: West Torrance and Southwood near the coast, Walteria and Hillside up the slope, North Torrance closer to the 405, and Old Torrance with its 1920s civic core.

At a glance

Vibe: Established, orderly, family-oriented
Housing: Mostly 1950s–70s single-family tracts, plus condos and townhomes near Del Amo and along the main corridors
Location: Central South Bay, bordered by Redondo Beach, Lomita, Gardena, and Carson, with a stretch of coastline at Torrance Beach
Getting around: 405 and 110 freeways, Hawthorne and Crenshaw boulevards; PCH along the south

Lifestyle

Wilson Park's farmers market, Torrance Beach below the Riviera, Old Torrance's restaurants, and a deep bench of Japanese and Korean food along the boulevards.

Housing

The single-family tracts are the draw — real lots, garages, and streets that have looked the same for decades. Hollywood Riviera and West Torrance sit at the top; North Torrance is the more attainable end.

Why we love it

A city where the block matters more than the zip code.
