Central San Fernando Valley · Los Angeles County
Tarzana runs along Ventura Boulevard between Encino and Woodland Hills, split informally into the flats north of the boulevard and the hillside stretch south of it. South of Ventura, streets climbing toward Mulholland hold larger custom homes, older estates on half-acre-plus lots, and a steady trickle of new construction replacing 1950s ranches. North of the boulevard, buyers find well-kept mid-century homes, pockets of newer development near Reseda Boulevard, and condominium buildings that give first-time buyers a way into the 91356 market. Medical employment around Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center brings consistent rental and resale demand. Families track the Wilbur Charter and Portola Middle attendance areas closely, while commuters lean on the 101 and the Reseda and Tampa arterials. Restaurants and services concentrate along Ventura Boulevard rather than in a single downtown, which keeps most neighborhoods residential and quiet. Tarzana often prices below Encino for comparable square footage, and that gap is a recurring reason buyers cross the boundary west.
