The California housing market has exploded in recent years and El Segundo in particular has benefited from this boom. Median residential property values have more than doubled since 2000 and, though growth has slowed over the past year, should continue to rise in the high-demand South Bay/Beach Cities market.

Though property values have risen, El Segundo still offers some of the most affordably priced housing in the South Bay residential market.
