Neighborhood

A quiet suburb outside of Los Angeles, Monterey Hills is known for its rolling hills, winding residential streets, and elevated city views. Check out Elephant Hill, a popular place to bike or hike that offers beautiful views of the neighborhood. Herman Park is nestled along Highway 110 in the north end of the neighborhood, offering tennis courts, playgrounds, and a dog park. And for more outdoor recreation, visit the biking paths and hiking trails at Ernest E. Debs Regional Park, bordering Monterey Hills.

Monterey Hills is a more secluded part of Northeast Los Angeles with larger lots, single-family homes, and tree-lined streets. However, if you cross over Highway 110, you’ll find theatres, restaurants, services, and more. Monterey Hills is located just seven miles northeast of Downtown Los Angeles and eight miles east of major attractions such as Griffith Park, the Los Angeles Zoo, the Greek Theatre, and Glendale Galleria.
