Lake Balboa is an ethnically diverse, working- to middle-class neighborhood of Los Angeles located in the central San Fernando Valley. Most of the homes in the area were built post-World War II, though many residents have upgraded them substantially since them.
The neighborhood attracts growing families because of its reasonable housing prices and proximity to the huge Balboa Park. In the center of the park sits Lake Balboa itself, after which the neighborhood takes its name. Reaching northward from the park, the Lake Balboa neighborhood has a pleasantly recreational vibe, thanks to the park and the many bike trails in the area.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
