Neighborhood

Nestled between Highway 213 and Interstate 110, Harbor is an industrial town 20 miles south of Los Angeles and 12 miles north of coastal beaches like White Point Beach. The northern section of the neighborhood is made up of commercial developments and entertainment options including a trampoline park, bakeries, grocers, pet stores, gyms, and more. But this area is home to more than retail spaces; several offices, distribution centers, and manufacturing plants including Nordstrom Local Omni Hub, Sunrider International, FNS, Inc, and more find their home in Harbor. The other parts of the neighborhood consist of residential areas with an abundance of rental options. Apartments, condos, and a few single-family homes can be found in moderate to upscale prices.
