Boyle Heights, CA

Boyle Heights sits on the eastern side of the LA River just two miles outside Downtown Los Angeles. This colorful neighborhood is one of the nine original wards that emerged from Los Angeles’ planning in the late 1800s. Today, it’s a multicultural scene of longstanding homes and residents plus new renters and businesses. Restaurants and shops are scattered all along Boyle Heights, with an emphasis on Mexican-American cuisine.

Apartment developments both new and old are plentiful in Boyle Heights, making this conveniently-located neighborhood popular with those who play and work in Los Angeles but prefer to reside outside the city center. There are parks and green spaces aplenty and easy access to the intersection of Interstates 5 and 10 just south of the neighborhood.
