Westchester was built quickly in the 1940s for aerospace workers and remains a community of single-family streets. It holds Loyola Marymount University, the Kentwood and Westport Heights tracts and the bluff above Playa Vista. As of September 2026 the CSMAR MLS showed no homes for sale in Westchester, and 4 closed sales over the last two years (too few for a meaningful median; most listings here are carried by the Los Angeles-area MLS). The lists below update live.
