Full-service high-rises with luxury amenities

$650K - $1.5M for most condos | UCLA campus and cultural programming
Westwood is defined by UCLA, the prestigious university that anchors this Westside neighborhood and infuses it with intellectual energy, cultural programming, and youthful vitality. The historic Westwood Village, once LA's premier movie premiere destination, offers walkable shopping, dining, and entertainment just steps from campus. The neighborhood's central location between Beverly Hills, Brentwood, and Century City makes it attractive to professionals and academics seeking urban convenience with residential comfort.
The Westwood condo market offers diverse options from high-rise towers along Wilshire Boulevard to mid-rise buildings throughout the neighborhood. The Wilshire Corridor features full-service luxury buildings with doormen, pools, and proximity to the future Metro Purple Line stations. More modest options exist in the village area and residential streets, providing entry points for buyers seeking this prime location.
Westwood appeals to UCLA faculty and staff, medical professionals at the nearby Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, and professionals working in Century City's office towers. The neighborhood's walkability, cultural amenities through UCLA's Hammer Museum and performing arts venues, and improving transit connections make it increasingly attractive to those seeking car-optional urban living on the Westside.

While UCLA brings student energy to the village, residential areas and Wilshire Corridor buildings maintain a professional, adult atmosphere. Many condos specifically attract faculty, medical professionals, and Century City workers rather than students.
The Purple Line extension will bring two stations to Westwood, dramatically improving transit access. This is expected to enhance property values, particularly along the Wilshire Corridor, while reducing car dependence for residents.
The village declined from its 1980s heyday due to parking challenges and competition from malls. Recent revitalization efforts, new restaurants, and the coming Metro have sparked renewed interest and investment in the district.
Westwood offers more urban energy with the village and UCLA, while Brentwood is quieter and more residential. Westwood condos are generally less expensive and offer better transit access. Brentwood has a more exclusive atmosphere.
