Manhattan Beach is part of an area of the southern California coast known as South Bay or the Beach Cities, and is conveniently located to the LA metro area. Just 30 minutes from Beverly Hills (when traffic is friendly), and less than 10 miles from LAX, Manhattan Beach feels a world away. Upscale, relaxed, and friendly, Manhattan Beach is a high-density community where everything is an easy walk, and you can park your car and forget it. Oceanfront walking paths and pedestrian-only thoroughfares make getting around town easy and fun.
Proximity to the Blue Pacific does come with a price, and homes in Manhattan Beach are definitely upscale. One factor that helps many families afford homes here is the school districts in Manhattan Beach. The high cost of private school tuition can be applied toward home costs with the high quality public schools found here. These schools are nationally recognized for their excellence, and receive generous supplemental support from the Manhattan Beach Educational Foundation.
