Atwater Village — why are you so good?


UGHHH, Atwater Village — why are you so good??

The Atwater Village Farmers Market on Sundays is one of the neighborhood’s gems. From the freshest fish and artisan bread to homemade jams and farm-fresh eggs (with a “have an eggcelent day” wish from our favorite egg guy), it’s become a weekly ritual for us since Levi was a baby. Beyond the market, Atwater is all about strolling tree-lined streets, popping into charming shops, and soaking up the local community vibe.

Perfectly located between Hollywood, Glendale, and Pasadena, living in Atwater Village means easy access to some of LA’s best dining spots. A few neighborhood favorites: Spina (don’t miss the lamb ragu), Bar Sinizki (authentic pierogis), Dune (you can’t go wrong), and of course, the legendary Tam O’Shanter, especially magical during the holidays.

Real estate in Atwater Village is just as special as its community. While lots and homes tend to be modest in size, they’re rich in charm—think beautiful Spanish-style houses on leafy streets. The median home price in Atwater Village is $1,367,500, though fully renovated homes are often closer to $2M plus. Let me your Atwater Village Realtor show you around!
