Neighborhood

Cypress Park is a community-oriented neighborhood just six miles north of Downtown Los Angeles. Residents bond at Rio de Los Angeles State Park or head outside the neighborhood for fun since Cypress Park isn’t far from some of LA’s local favorites like Dodger Stadium and Griffith Park. As you travel through Cypress Park, you’ll see murals and other public art adorning the walls of buildings and sidewalks, while authentic eateries with some of the best food in the city line the streets. The neighborhood has Mediterranean-style houses, apartments, and townhomes available for rent. Along with its affordability, Cypress Park is a rising neighborhood gaining attention for its proximity to the LA River and several development projects are already underway.
